Each assignment will have a deadline
These deadlines will be:
On the brief
On the website
On the boards in R301, R335 and R326
Will be text to you (along with a 1 week deadline reminder)
There are NO excuses for not submitting any work – ALL work we ask you to do, be that big assignments or small task are ALL part of your course, will ALL be graded and ONE missed piece could result in a fail or a referal even if the rest of your work is to a high standard.
Missed deadline will result in a fail grade and you will be refered!

5. How your work is assessed
Units 1 – 7 will be graded as a PASS / FAIL / REERAL – Your feedback sheets will indicate to what level of
PASS you are achieving (low, good or excellent)
If you fail to submit on time or with ALL items of work you will fail and your work will be referred.
This work will be assessed again, and if you failed due to ill health, lack of understanding or other plausible
Reasons you will be allowed ONE more chance to resubmit – but the work will need to be completed in
Your own time and during COMPULSORY WORKSHOPS on Wednesday afternoons.
If it is decided you failed due to lack of effort you may not be granted the opportunity to resubmit.
Unit 8: Final Project will determine your grade for the year. This will be EXTERNALLY graded by the exam board
As well as by us
ALL work will be marked and then internally verified (marked again by another teacher)
before the final grade is given
