GCSE/GCE PE - Component 4 - you will have no contact from a moderator

For Component 4: PEP - you will not have any contact with a moderator.  Mid- April you will be able to look on EdexcelOnline and there will be a tick by the candidates who are part of the sample. 

You must upload the work for every candidate who is part of the sample on Learner Work Transfer by 15 May. 

The only time you may have to upload additional learner work would be if the candidate with the highest and lowest mark has not be selected - in this scenario you would also have to upload their work.

Special Consideration

I have received a few queries from teachers asking for advice about learners who are injured for the practical (Component 3).

If you have formally assessed the candidate(s) and awarded the mark during the course of study it is not required for candidate(s) to apply for special consideration. You should submit the marks in the same way as any other candidate and you inform the moderator that the learner is injured and cannot participate in the moderation day. 

However, if the candidate(s) has never been formally assessed in one or more activity during the whole course of study, then they should apply for special consideration.  

If the candidate(s) has failed to participate in an assessment/examination without valid reason, it is expected that they will be awarded the mark of absent and special consideration cannot be requested.  

Centres will need to fill in two forms:  

• JCQ’s Form 10  

• Pearson’s Form 10 (for practical performance)  

Applications for special consideration along with the appropriate documentation, such as a medical certificate, should be sent to uk.special.requirements@pearson.com. 

Further guidance and the forms can be found on the website and in the guidance document
