Standardisation training
After listening to your feedback, we're pleased to confirm that standardisation training for Unit 1 and Unit 2 will now be free to all centres. To book on to an event in your area, visit our training page.
 
All centres will be sent a pack of standardisation materials to use for standardisation training. You can find the new exemplars from the June 2012 series below.

Coming soon! Can't make it to a face-to-face event? An online podcast of our free standardisation training event with FAQS will be available shortly.

expand Exemplars

The standardisation materials will be used at the free training events in 2012. If you can't attend one of these events, you can find the marks and moderator commentaries below. We'll also be providing a recording of one of the online training events for you to watch at a time convenient for you.
 
If you'd like to order a hard copy of the standardisation training pack, including a DVD of practical performance, contact TeachingPerformingArts@pearson.com.
