3. Class CG% General Characteristics Level 6
FIRST
(Excellent}
96 Exceptional breadth and depth of knowledge and understanding of the area of study; evidence of extensive and appropriate selection and critical
evaluation/synthesis/analysis and of reading/research beyond the prescribed range, in both breadth and depth, to advance work/direct arguments; exceptional
demonstration of relevant skills; excellent communication; performance deemed to be beyond expectation . Work may achieve or be close to publishable or
commercial standard..
89
81 Excellent knowledge and understanding of the area of study as the student is typically able to go beyond what has been taught (particularly for a mid/high 1st
;
evidence of extensive and appropriate selection and critical evaluation/ synthesis/analysis of reading/research beyond the prescribed range, to advance work/direct
arguments; excellent demonstration of relevant skills; excellent communication; performance deemed beyond expectation of the level.
74
UPPER SECOND
(Very good)
68 Very good knowledge and understanding of the area of study as the student is typically able to relate facts/concepts together with some ability to apply to
known/taught contexts; evidence of appropriate selection and critical evaluation of reading/research, some beyond the prescribed range, may rely on set sources to
advance work/direct arguments; demonstrates autonomy in approach to learning; very good demonstration of relevant skills; strong communication skills..
65
62
LOWER SECOND
(Good)
58 Good knowledge and understanding of the area of study balanced towards the descriptive rather than critical or analytical; evidence of appropriate selection and
evaluation of reading/research, some may be beyond the prescribed range, but generally reliant on set sources to advance work/direct arguments; good demonstration
of relevant skills, though may be limited in range; communication shows clarity but structure may not always be coherent .
55
52
THIRD
(Sufficient)
48 Knowledge and understanding is sufficient to deal with terminology, basic facts and concepts but fails to make meaningful synthesis; some ability to select and
evaluate reading/research however work may be more generally descriptive; general reliance on set sources to advance work; arguments may be weak or poorly
constructed; adequate demonstration of relevant skills over a limited range;communication/presentation is generally competent but with some weaknesses.
45
42
FAIL
(Insufficient)
35
Insufficient knowledge and understanding of the subject and its underlying concepts; some ability to evaluate given reading/research however work is more generally
descriptive; naively follows or may ignore set material in development of work; given brief may be only tangentially addressed or may ignore key aspects of the brief;
demonstration of relevant skills over a reduced range; communication shows limited clarity, poor presentation, structure may not be coherent.
25
15
Highly insufficient knowledge or understanding of the area of study; understanding is typically at the word level with facts being reproduced in a disjointed or
decontextualised manner; fails to address the outcomes addressed by the brief; typically ignores important sources in development of work and data/evidence
inappropriately used; weak technical and practical competence hampers ability to
demonstrate/communicate achievement of outcomes.
