14. Scheme of Work and Assessment The course will be taught in short units (1-3 weeks long). Following each unit pupils will complete a APP short assessment. At the end of each half term pupils will undertake an assessment based on the units covered that half term. Pupils will be tracked on their progress. If a pupil underachieves on an APP they will re- sit this assessment If a pupil continues to underachieve they will be offered additional support
