of the stages that you are going to need to complete for your unit 5 assignment, from
reading the assignment brief to producing a first draft, through to producing your final draft
and submitting it for marking.You must review the unit 5 assignment brief and the relevant
assessment criteria before producing your assignment plan. Your assignment plan must
then include the structure and format of the unit 5 assignment, including any sections,
headings and word count(s).Where you include the first draft you need to break this down
into the different sections you will need to write for an illustrated report following the
recommended report format that is in section 1.1 of the study materials for the âAcademic
Writing Skillsâ unit. Each section within the report format includes an indicative number of
words; you should incorporate this information into your assignment plan.You then need to
allocate each of the stages a suitable time frame for completion. The submission date for
your report is 10 days from today and the start date is today. Ensure that you use actual
dates within your assignment plan and not âweek 1â, âweek 2â etc.Once you have done this,
you should enter all of your stages and their allocated time frame for completion into a
timetable or chart. Refer to the timetable provided in the Assessor Guidance for this
assignment.You can then review your timetable to ensure that your time scales are realistic
and that you are going to be able to submit your assignment by the set deadline.The

format, structure and layout, including relevant word counts⢠Deadline for the production
