Continuous assessment:Students must be assessed on the five English language skills (listening, speaking, interacting, writing and reading), as well as their theoretical and practical knowledge of cultural history, art, culture, and literature in the English language.
Any question scored with less than two points will mean that the exam will automatically be graded as "failed".
In no case is the possibility of regulated blended teaching and evaluation considered as such. -
Non-continuous evaluation:Those students who have problems or doubts about their participation in the continuous assessment process should contact the head teacher of the subject.
If a student were caught cheating or faking, she would get a final grade of 'Fail 0'.
