Tutorial assessments
Most of the work submitted in tutorials is assessed. You must obtain a pass mark on this work to be able to pass your Examinations in Year 1 and 2. If you obtain a mean mark of <40% for your tutorial work, OR if your attendance is unsatisfactory, you will fail the tutorial assessment and will be required to write an extended essay during the summer vacation.
The compensation rules for examinations (see Section Pass marks and compensation rules (Level 1) (Level 2)) will only be applied if you pass the tutorial assessments AND fulfil the attendance requirement for tutorials units.
Assessments associated with data handling and Writing and Referencing Skills are monitored for the work elements of the Work and Attendance Regulations (see Section Work and attendance regulations (Level 1) (Level 2)) and are also part of the tutorial assessment. Failure to complete these assessments satisfactorily will result in failure of the tutorial, and you will be required to complete tutorial referral work over the summer vacation.
The marks for tutorial assessments and Writing and Referencing Skills units in Years 1 & 2 are not included in the calculation of your mean mark for the year.
