Information regarding Student evidence sheets and the Academy Centre Policy.

Guidance states that a range of evidence from across the course should be used to determine grades. This evidence should be based only on what each student has been taught but it is important to understand that teachers do not need to assess students on every aspect of the subject covered.

We will be taking the following steps to ensure that the evidence used is appropriate for all students regarding curriculum coverage:

· All students will be provided with a list of evidence that each subject plan to use to inform the final grade. links to the evidence sheets available are below.

· Students will have the opportunity to raise any concerns about the evidence being used, for example, if the evidence was affected by personal circumstances, such as illness, injury or agreed access arrangement not provided at the time of the assessment or piece of work. Details of how a student will be able to raise a concern is detailed below.

· Any further updates to the evidence used e.g. evidence replacement due to illness or additional evidence required to determine a grade, will be shared with students verbally over the upcoming weeks. This will provide a further opportunity to raise any concerns as mentioned above.

You will have received information regarding the process to raise a concern. The steps for this are included below:

· The concern must be raised with Mr McEwan.

· Please include the following details:

o Evidence raised as a concern – subject and evidence description.

o Reason for the concern e.g. illness, injury, significant bereavement or access arrangements.

o Dates of absence or significant event.

o Impact of the concern.

Your concern will then be investigated and any outcomes will be shared with you before the 18th June.

All concerns should be raised with Mr McEwan by Friday 21st May to enable a review of the concern raised and relevant actions to be taken by the subject team.
