Scene 6

Controlled assessment consists of an eight hour assessment (not all in one go ). We will have regular class tests/homework prior to this date, so that we can track your progress and ensure that you are fully prepared. During the assessment period you will have access to your class notes, files, handouts, homework and books (it is a bit like an open book exam). Everything that you use in the assessment room must stay in that room once the assessment has started (so when you return the next day everything will already be in the classroom waiting for you). You cannot take anything extra into the assessment once it has started and you cannot work on your assessment outside of the eight hour period (e.g. at home). The idea of this is that you use all the materials/notes from lessons to help you answer the assessment brief.

Scene 7

You must address the assessment criteria set out by the exam board Each lesson will be based on the assessment criteria to fully prepare you Your work will be graded just like A Levels on an A-U basis.

Can you define it? What image comes to mind when you think of that word? Simple definition  - “A  crime is an  il legal act carried out that is punishable by law.” Complex definition  – “Crime  is  behaviour , either by act or omission, defined by statutory or common law as deserving of punishment. Although most crimes require the element of intent, certain minor crimes may be committed on the basis of strict liability even if the defendant had no specific  mindset  with regard to the criminal action .”
