Hey, C1 crew.
I have fresh news about assessment and how the last module (March-June) of this rather odd 2019-2020 academic year is going to be organized. I’ll try to break the info down as clearly as I can and I urge you to email me at mudachickn@hotmail.com should there be details you need further information about. Alternatively, if there’s more granular stuff you want to discuss, we can do so on Skype next Monday. I also would like to warn you that there might be changes but I frankly don’t think we should be expecting major ones at this point. Granted, if there’s one thing this whole situation has made clear is that no plans are set in stone. In any case, it seemed more than reasonable to let you know about all of this sooner rather than later.
This information may prove a bit tough to understand. I apologise if the explanation is a bit convoluted. According, to the instructions we have received, a student whose mark in any given skill was 50% or higher at the end of the second module, that is, on the lists I posted on this blog in late March and early April, has already managed to pass that skill. If you have managed to get a pass in all the skills in the second module, you have earned right to enrol in C2 although you will not be given a C1 diploma.

The third module will end in mid June and it’ll be assessed online. You most probably won’t go back to school till September. I’ll keep proposing tasks for you to complete and giving you feedback. Presumably, there won’t be a final exam so your mark for whatever tasks you didn’t manage to pass in March will be an average of the tasks you need to hand in during this last module.
In order for you guys to obtain your C1 diploma you would need to sit the usual certification test that will only take place once this year in September. You would have to get a global mark of 65% to pass the test and get a certificate. If your global mark is in the range of 50%-65% you would be able to enrol in the C2 class that will predictably be taught in our school starting in Autumn this year. Should your mark for any of the individual skills be lower than 50%, you would have to retake the C1.2 course.
