Assessor Marking Guide

The Assessor Marking Guide supports assessors in making consistent and valid assessment decisions. It includes benchmarks, model answers, observation checklists, and recording spaces. 

Coursebox can generate draft marking guides, but they must be reviewed and customised to meet compliance and instructional quality standards. When checking the Assessor Marking Guide:

• Confirm the file is named correctly: Unit Code_Assessor Marking Guide_v1

• Ensure each activity includes a section for model answers or expected outcomes

• Check for benchmarks that distinguish between satisfactory and unsatisfactory performance

• Ensure observation checklists are present for practical tasks

• Look for spaces to record assessor comments, outcomes, and feedback

• Confirm that formatting matches the updated layout (Calibri, headings, spacing)
