What am I supposed to do?

• The coursework forms 50% of the final mark. The recommended length is 2000 - 2500 words and it is marked internally and moderated externally.
• Coursework titles are taken from a bank of titles provided by the board and selected by the school. If you wish to see the full selection of titles then see your teacher. However we would prefer you to stick with our selection - it helps us keep track of all the work.
• The Specification states that the work must be written by the student and should include a bibliography which indicates the materials used just for consultation and those for extensive research.
• It is imperative that candidates ensure that their work is legible, we recommend that the work is typed.
• It is also important that you do not lose your work. Store your work on the computer network at school as well as on disc and your own hard drive.
• Keep a record of all materials that you use - don't take notes from a piece of work and then forget the title - try and keep all your rough work in a file.
• You can sub divide your coursework if you wish and you can include footnotes, appendices and a glossary.
• Do not embellish for the sake of including more information - it is more important that you stick to the title.
