6. Students’ work Merit and Distinction tasks complete. More than two tasks complete. Self assessment of level.

7. Students’ work Distinction task complete. Student’s 4 levels progress target is a Merit. Self assessment with justification.

8. Students’ work Student completed 4 tasks ranging from Pass to Distinction. Student’s 4 levels progress target is a Merit.

9. Students’ work Completion of Merit and Distinction tasks. Student’s 4 level progress target is a Merit. Self assessment.
