 Please ensure that the order of the pieces on submitted recordings
is the same as the order on the record sheet.

• It must be the case that all work submitted for assessment is ESSENTIALLY the work of that student.
Help by the teacher must not give the work a more sophisticated quality than the student is capable of
achieving. When making the assessments teachers must take into consideration the degree of assistance
given to the different students. In reviewing the marks awarded by teachers, moderators will wish to have
information as to the nature and scope of the assistance given by the teacher in the completion of the
pieces.
• It is the responsibility of the teacher to accept for marking only coursework which he/she knows to
have been done by the student concerned. It will be necessary for that responsibility to be exercised
during the course. Teachers should ensure that each candidate has available, at the time of examination
sufficient work which can be accepted as authentic. Acceptance for marking will be taken to be a statement by
the teacher that a particular piece of work is that of the candidate submitting it.

Please comment on the candidate’s submission and, if appropriate, indicate the nature and scope of any
assistance given.

Teachers, centres and candidates should note that CCEA may use extracts from examination scripts/coursework
material on an anonymous basis in educational presentations, materials and products.
