institutions in their respective territories and will be required to sit Papers 01, 02, and EITHER
Paper 031 OR Paper 032.

educational and private institutions. The Paper will be of 1 hour duration and will consist of
two questions.

3. Candidates entered for the examination through private institutions and who opt to sit the SBA
component, Paper 031 must note the following:

(a) Candidates’ work must be monitored by tutors in the institution and given feedback
before the final assessment of that component. Tutors must also monitor candidates’
project to determine the veracity of work submitted. Tutors should not accept projects
which were not monitored during development. The marks recorded in the two
components will be collated to form the final SBA mark for submission by April 30, in
the year of the examination.

(b) Marks must be submitted to the Caribbean Examinations Council on the School-Based
Assessment forms provided online. The forms should be submitted electronically via
the SBA data capture module on the Online Registration System (ORS) on the Council’s

Assessment will be reported as “ungraded”.

(c) Candidates as well as tutors must retain a copy of the completed component as part
of their portfolio.
