MODERATION OF SCHOOL-BASED ASSESSMENT
The reliability (consistency) of the marks awarded by the teachers on the SBA is an important
characteristic of high quality assessment. To assist in this process, the Council will undertake on-site
moderation of the SBA. The External Moderators will moderate the solo performance and the
ensemble of a sample of five candidates, chosen in accordance with the Council’s guidelines.
On-site moderation will be conducted during the months of April in the year of the examination.
Teachers must make available to the External Moderators ALL Assessment Sheets (Record of Marks
for Music). Teachers are not required to submit samples of candidates’ work, unless specifically
requested to do so by the Council.
