Exemplar Standardisation Material
We have recently published new Exemplar Standardisation Material. This has taken material from the June 2024 series and includes marks and commentary on the marks awarded.
You can use this to guide your marking decisions as it exemplifies the application of the marking grids.
Training
We have been running live training events for marking and moderation, and for preparing for external assessment. If you have missed these we have pre-recorded events covering this material available on the 'Training' section of the BTEC Tech AWard in Music Practice subject page.
