AO7: choose and shape a specific topic for a formal spoken presentation.

AO7: choose and shape a specific topic for a formal spoken presentation. This objective is about topic shaping: students need to narrow a broad idea into a clear angle, purpose and audience promise. Its distinctive vocabulary is scope, angle, focus, purpose, audience, evidence, formalise, presentation, topic, selection. These words keep the revision task separate from neighbouring spoken-language objectives. Evidence of success comes from topic scope, central argument, planned examples and formal presentation purpose; the common trap is choosing a topic that is too wide, vague or unsupported. Write a one-sentence presentation focus, then list three examples that prove the focus can be developed. In Preparing a spoken presentation, finish by checking that the answer still suits Presenting and responding and the AQA GCSE English Language spoken endorsement.
