Preparing a portfolio of evidence in case exams cannot take place
In our update on 30 September we explained that in countries and regions of countries, where exams cannot take place, we will ask schools to submit a portfolio of three substantial pieces of evidence for each student. This will be marked by Cambridge International examiners. The portfolio of evidence replaces the school-assessed grade approach.
Our guidance Collecting a portfolio of evidence for the June 2022 series (PDF, 397KB) explains the types of work that can be included in the portfolio and gives advice about when and how to gather this work. Given the uncertainty that still surrounds the pandemic, we recommend that schools have a portfolio in place for their students, in electronic form, by the start of the exam series.
We will share the Rationale Document template, the timeframe for submitting the portfolio to us, and an overview of how we will mark the work in the portfolio in December.
