Assessment

The ‘Personal Investigation’ unit has 5 assessment objectives. Students will be assessed on their ability to record their ideas and observations, how well they can experiment and refine their ideas, how well they can relate their ideas to the work of others and their ability to create a professional final outcome. In addition to their practical portfolio, students will complete a research based essay in response to a question that they devise. Students also complete an externally set unit based on a word or theme set by the exam board in Year 13.
