Assessment

This is a new specification that incorporates three methods of assessment. Throughout the two years there are two examined units, one externally assessed coursework unit and five internally assessed coursework units. Each piece of assessed work will be awarded a pass, merit or distinction grade and these grades are cumulative, resulting in a final grade at the end of the course. It is therefore essential students apply themselves to all tasks as they are continually being assessed.
