Assessment requirements

All assessment in the course is formative. The approach is to learn from the contributions of colleagues, from engaging with feedback you receive and giving feedback yourself.

You will complete the application tasks which form the preparation for the professional recognition tasks for which you will receive tutor feedback and recognition from the General Teaching Council for Scotland on successful completion.

• where you need to complete the assessment tasks
• when these tasks are due
• what marking criteria will be used by your tutor
• what did you learn about the GTCS professional recognition award.
