How you'll be assessed

The Level 3 BTEC has been changed in the last few years. Most of your assessment is still through coursework assignments, but there will now be one examined unit. The course is modular. Two-unit modules will be taken in Year 12 and two more in Year 13. THREE units are compulsory, including the exam unit and then we will choose ONE optional unit from a choice of several. Assignments will sometimes be written to cover all of the unit and sometimes smaller assignments will cover parts of the unit.
