Formative Assessment
PPD Stream only: A learning portfolio will be kept by each student and will be used by tutors for formative assessment. Each practical session on clinical skills and communication skills will involve formative assessment. MiC Stream only: no formative assessment will be set outwith the cross-curricula (and therefore cross-modular) assessments in the Level 2 programme.
Students who do not attend monitored activities shown under Teaching Methods
and Learning Hours, or who fail to complete the summative or formative
assessment(s) specified above, may be subject to the Academic Progress
procedures defined in the University's General Regulation V, and may be
required to leave the University.
