DEADLINES1. Meeting deadlines is extremely

important in order to succeed at BTEC and will get you ready for Uni/Apprenticeships/Jobs.

2. There is not a lot of time throughout the academic year to cover the majority of assignments in detail. Therefore it is essential you stick to the given deadlines by teachers.

DEADLINESAccording to Edexcel (BTEC Awarding Body). For Distinction grade criteria.

‘The term ‘working independently’ means that they are able to work on their own initiative, do not need constant support or supervision, give the work their full commitment, work positively and cooperatively with others, and meet deadlines. In other words, they have the kind of self-management skills that would be expected of them in a professional context.’

DEADLINES

1. If you miss any of the given deadlines the highest grade you will achieve will be a PASS regardless of the content and quality of the assignment.
