After listening to engineering teachers and Heads of Departments we will retain our popular three unit approach.
The unit titles will be:
- Design and graphical communication– controlled assessment
- Engineered products - controlled assessment
- Application of technology - external examination

What is controlled assessment?
For the 2009 specification internal assessment will need to be carried out under controlled conditions. This change may alter the way that you deliver this part of the specification. We will, of course, provide you with assistance and guidance on how to manage controlled conditions within Engineering.
You can see the QCA controlled assessment regulations for Engineering here.
