coursework projects.
Assessment 1
Details of Assessment
Students will submit two coursework projects which make up their coursework portfolio. This will
be used to determine an overall grade. The exam board has released graded marking sets,
which we will use in order to determine the correct grades for our students. Our staff have
attended the GCSE standardisation meeting in March 2021. Students are expected to have
satisfied all of the four assessment objectives across the two coursework projects and will receive
an appropriate grade according to how well they have done this.
Coursework portfolios will be marked by the subject teacher, and standardisation will then take
place.
