REMINDER ON SUBMISSION AND GRADING:
You must submit the work on the deadline given to you.
If you do not submit the work on the given date (without prior notice) then you can only achieve a pass in that
assignment and therefore only a pass for that unit.
If you do not achieve the pass criteria then you will have one week
to make any necessary corrections to achieve the pass criteria.
If you intend to achieve a merit or distinction grade please remember you must do this on your first attempt.
If you do
not make a good attempt at the merit when you first submit the assignment then you cannot achieve the merit or
distinction for that unit.
If you attempt the merit or distinction but get referred on the grade then you will have one week
to make any necessary corrections. If you feel you are unable to hand in work on the designated deadline please see
your lecturer or tutor
