The full reference need only to included in the Bibliography.) Your paragraph on Ofcom includes a error. Your bibliography should be presented in alphabetical order.
Your essay is interesting and focussed on your aims. You have identified key ways in which radio sports journalists can deliver and perform optimally.

You have effectively applied academic conventions in the structure of your essay and language and syntax you have employed in your essay. You have used paragraphing appropriately and have introduced and concluded your essay effectively. Good use of Harvard Referencing through the main body of the essay and the bibliography.
You have produced a proposal, literature review and academic essay following appropriate conventions. There are some grammatical errors and issues regarding the formality of your language. For example, instead of "...presenters need to be clued up so they can express their views and opinions... " you could use the term "knowledgable". 
3.2 Effectively communicate ideas in appropriate formats.
