Coursework Overview Timeline

We recognise that it is good practice, when setting coursework, to ensure that our students are informed about the following:

• how coursework fits into the assessment of the course, ie percentage of overall marks available;

• the criteria for assessment of the coursework;

• the expectations in terms of time to be spent in the production of coursework;

• a clear schedule of deadlines for drafted work as well as the final deadline for production of completed work.

To this end, we have created a number of documents for our current Year 10 students which outlines coursework expectations and time frames.
