Student work is assessed into different class categories by using the following criteria:
1
Fail (30-39)
Such answers are insufficient and, while showing some awareness of the area, fail to deal
• with the question in a way that suggest more than a fragmented and shallow
acquaintance
• with the subject. They are often error-prone, lacking in coherence, structure and
evidence of independent thought.
