If you’re delivering any of our general qualifications with non-exam assessment (NEA) components, once you’ve submitted marks or grades for students, you’ll receive sample requests asking you to submit evidence for moderation.
To support you with submitting this evidence, we’ve provided a summary of the submission requirements for each general qualification. These are the qualifications which have components where samples of work must be submitted for external moderation via digital upload or by post.
We've also summarised the evidence required for NEA components with external assessment, i.e. examination via digital upload or visit, and visiting moderation.
Take a look at our key dates for when to submit marks and grades. Remember, not submitting marks by the deadline puts students at risk of not receiving their results on results day and may prompt a malpractice investigation.
June 2024: Submit for Assessment is replacing the OCR Repository for the submission of moderation samples – the OCR Repository entry option code has been renamed ‘Moderated: Upload’. When making entries, please use this option code to choose Submit for Assessment.
