Assessment Type 2: Fieldwork Report

School assessment Weighting: 30%

The Geography fieldwork report is assessed by the school and moderated at Stage 2. Teachers select moderation samples and submit materials online

Students produce one individual fieldwork report. Each student is responsible for independently planning, organising, and carrying out fieldwork and completing a report.

The fieldwork should focus on a local topic or an issue of personal interest.

The fieldwork report may be in multimodal, written, and/or oral form. A written report should be a maximum of 2000 words; an oral report should be a maximum of 12 minutes; a report in multimodal form should be of equivalent length.

Student work should be their own. See Supervision and verification of student work.

Teachers can access student samples for school assessment and external assessment components via PLATO.
