  9. The Honours ProgrammeThis part of the award is designed to accredit up to seven areas of experience and achievement, carefully chosen to meet the ModBac aims and objectives, and delivered within the context of a broad and balanced personal development curriculum. The seven areas are:A modern language / internationalismICT / ComputingEnterprise / Financial CapabilityAn extended projectWork Experience or Work- related programmeA personal challengeA community award These learning contexts can be externally accredited through a qualification, an approved provider (DoE, Young Enterprise, SkillForce, etc.), as part of a curriculum programme, inside or outside the classroom

  10. Grading the Honours Programme at Foundation and Intermediate Level Not every student has to do every element, and the final gradings will reflect this (and the importance of external accreditation, as follows: DISTINCTION*All 7 elements evidenced in learner transcript (with at least 4 elements externally accredited or certificated) DISTINCTION 6 elementsevidenced in learner transcript (with at least 3 elements externally accredited or certificated) MERIT  5 elements evidenced in learner transcript (with at least 2 elements externally accredited or certificated) PASS4 elements evidenced in learner transcript (no elements need external accreditation or certification) The learner transcript would be clear about which elements (e.g. Personal Challenge, Languages, etc) have been evidenced.

  11. The Skills PassportThe Skills Passport will be flexible and adaptable to local contexts, accrediting skills development systems and processes that may already be highly developed in some schools and academies. The pupil transcript will report the basic and wider skills students have acquired, such as: • ALAN tests (literacy and numeracy) • Other functional or key skill tests and qualifications • ASDAN skills-centred qualifications (CoPE, AoPE, CVQ, Employability, etc.) • RSA “Opening Minds” awards • PLTS passport • Building Learning Power • QCF competence based skills qualifications from Prince’s Trust, Edexcel and NCFE

  12. A Unique Story behind every Modern Baccalaureate transcript An extremely able student, possibly in the top 4% in the country- secured very high grades in nearly every GCSE …however, only a PASS for Honours programme (Language GCSE qualification perhaps, but little else externally accredited). No community work? Why has such an able student got so little to show in terms of employability skills?

  13. A Unique Story behind every Modern Baccalaureate transcript Andi Elliott Andi is a very hardworking young lady and is committed to everything she embarks upon. Andi has already passed Maths and English in Y10, with good grades, but is now aiming for A*s. In addition to this she is studying GSCE Biology, Physics and Chemistry. Andi has also passed NCFE Level 2 Custom Animation as well as a BTEC Level 2 Diploma in Art. She is also studying GCSE R.E. Chinese and OCR Nationals Level 2 First Award in ICT. Andi will finish with an Intermediate Level Modern Baccalaureate. Andi has met the Skills Passport requirements through ASDAN’s AoPE (Award of Personal Effectiveness), developing and accrediting Team Working, Planning & Reviewing Learning and Presentation skills based on work experience. Andi has also completed the Level 2 literacy and numeracy ALAN tests. Andi also has also worked with a group of students to set up and run a Smoothie bar at the Academy, thus, demonstrating team working skills and entrepreneurial qualities. Andi enjoys playing music in her spare time and has achieved a grade 3 in drums and a grade 2 in the violin. She was also involved in the Rock Challenge performance in Y10. These have contributed to the Personal Challenge. Andi also chosen to study the NCFE Level 2 Certificate in Enterprise qualification in the Academy’s extended day. Since Andi is studying Chinese and ICT these will also count towards the Honours section. As Work Experience was externally accredited through ASDAN (see above), Andi has therefore already achieved five elements within the Honours section.
