Teachers must assess the report in accordance with the Marking Scheme set in the syllabus (pp 26 – 32). RESIT PROVISIONS At registration, the previous year‟s registration number must be indicated. All candidates, with their previous year‟s registration numbers, must be listed on the Record Sheet, if these are used. Candidates who obtain moderated marks equal to 50% of the total SBA may choose not to repeat the SBA provided they rewrite the examination in the year immediately following the first sitting. Candidates who obtained moderated marks less than 50% of the maximum SBA marks must repeat the Field Study. 33
