Read the guidance in our specification on pages 51 to 63 which clarifies how much assistance you can give your students completing the set assignment of the moderated units.
Our set assignments include some hints and tips to each task, to help guide you on what students should do to guard against malpractice.
There are also three specific templates you can give your students when they are creating: a storyboard, a test table, an asset table.
