| Assessment criteria: | Assessment is criterion referenced, integrated and continuous. There is no formal final examination. The course and the assignments are of a highly practical nature. While classroom teaching practice is of the greatest importance, all aspects of performance and work done on the course are taken into consideration, including written work and overall professionalism. Candidates are informed of their progress during the course by written commentary on their teaching practice and assignments, and by tutorial. The course trainer assesses candidates and an external assessor appointed by Cambridge University regulates the results to standardise grades.
The Cambridge CELTA is awarded to candidates who satisfy all assessment criteria and complete all course requirements. The grades of the certificate are Pass, Pass B, Pass A or "No Certificate Awarded". |
