To be deemed competent, students must achieve Satisfactory (S) results in all assessments.

This course is graded as Competent or Not Yet Competent and subsequently, the following course grades are allocated:

CA - Competency Achieved

NYC - Not Yet Competent

DNS - Did Not Submit for Assessment.

Assessment Due Dates

All assessment tasks will have a due date provided and published in Canvas. Assessments submitted after the due date will not be accepted unless an extension has been provided or special consideration has been granted.

Assessment Resubmissions (if Unsatisfactory)

You will be allowed 1 (ONE) resubmission attempt FOR EVERY ASSESSMENT (if unsatisfactory). You will be provided with a new due date by your teacher for your resubmission attempt if a resubmission is required.

If you do not submit your assessment (First attempt) by the due date you will not be eligible for resubmission if unsatisfactory.
