Assessment

Assessment throughout the course is split between coursework and externally set assignments. The coursework element spans over Year 12 and Year 13, where students build on a portfolio of work ideas as well as a written study into their topic. The coursework is worth 60% of the final A-level mark. The external examination is completed between February and May and is worth 40%. This is a practical exam spanning over three days, but there is no written exam as part of the course.
