Assessment requirements Candidates must successfully complete all parts of an assessment to a satisfactory and appropriate standard in order to gain a pass for that assessment. The assessments have been designed to assess the ability of candidates to cover a range of issues associated with a given unit. Consequently, it is not appropriate for parts of any assessment to be omitted, submitted incomplete or be of an unsatisfactory standard. Tutors/assessors are reminded of their responsibility to provide written feedback to candidates regarding their assessments and of the fact that candidates should not be encouraged to submit work for final assessment until it is complete and to the appropriate standard for the task. Candidates must have achieved the minimum marks indicated for each task, and the overall assessment. Candidates may retake any particular task. Guidance on this is provided in the Assessment guidance document. Candidates may choose to word process their answers. Assessors may guide candidates in the length of their responses. They should use the marking guidance as a rough indication of what should be covered, and use the space provided in the task box as a guide as to how much should be written. Resubmission Candidates may resubmit their assessment work if tasks were failed on the first submission if centres think that a further assessment opportunity would result in a positive outcome for the candidate. Grading and marking Assessments are marked by the centre and graded Pass/Fail only. The
