1. DEADLINES
1. 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.

2. DEADLINES
According 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.’

highest grade you will achieve will be a PASS
regardless of the content and quality of the

term. For example if an assignment is due early
November you have until Christmas to submit.
