Estimates, Absentees and Assessment Appeals 2008

Estimates, Absentees and Appeals front cover image The publication of the updated guidance on Estimates, Absentees and Assessment Appeals (EAAs) for the 2008 diet has been published.

This document will support our work with teachers, lecturers and partners to enhance understanding of standards. Two copies of the document have been issued to centres.

The key changes to the guidance are as follows:

clarification of the text in Social Subjects, Social Sciences and Business subjects, evidence requirements
additional advice on split prelims in the generic section dealing with prelims
clarification on evidence requirements in Home Economics at Intermediate 1
additional advice for Higher Mathematics, in the light of the introduction of objective test questions in the examination for diet 2008
following requests from centres, some Standard Grade advice has been added as an appendix

We hope that the early publication of this guidance will assist staff in the detailed planning that we know takes place within centres to deliver courses.
