What do the students need do in order to secure a decent grade?
There are 4 pieces of coursework that need to be submitted by the 5th of November: these make up 20% of the overall grade. There are also 3 spoken assessments: also worth in total 20% of the grade. There are two exams, each worth 30%. Like all GCSEs the marks range from G grade to A*. Clearly, coursework grades are important to doing well overall. Your child is likely to have completed coursework during year 10 if attending well, however some of this may be re-visited now to maximise grades. If this is the case, a separate letter will be sent shortly by your child’s teacher , explaining what, if anything , needs re-doing or completing.
