Summer 2021 Assessment

We have been communicating to 2020 Providers with regards to the summer 2021 adaptations for the Core Component assessment.

As you know, the DfE have confirmed T Level students will have the option to receive a Teacher Assessed Grade (TAG) for the Core Component this summer.

We have a dedicated T Levels TAG Guidance for Summer 2021 webpage

Support materials are located on our Course Materials webpage.

*Please note we have updated the Mark Scheme for Topic Test 2. Please ensure you are using Version 2. A link to the updated PDF can be found here: Topic Test 2 Mark scheme.

The TAG support materials are made up of:

  • Specimen Assessment Materials* 
  • Core Componennt exams:
    • A range of topic tests and march schemes 
    • Grade description supported by performance indicators A, C and E grade
  • Guidance on grading 
  • Worked examples if grading

*please note: our SAMs, AdSAMs and other TAG support materials have recently undergone some minor amendments, therefore please ensure you are using the most up to date versions published on 7 May 2021.
