Controlled Assessment The following Controlled Assessment Tasks for Unit 1 are in DRAFT form Handle with Care

Controlled Assessment Unit1 Unit 1 Draft Controlled Assessment Tasks Children’s Storage Young children have a range of toys which need to be stored in a specific location. This need arises due to safety concerns i.e. trip hazards. You have been asked to design a range of storage options which will need to be easily accessible to include space for a variety of toys for children under the age of five. Exhibition Unit The display of a variety of products is required for a school foyer. Products may include trophies, plaques, photographs and exemplar student work. You have been asked to submit designs for a storage and exhibition unit that is both adjustable and portable which may also be used in other environments within the school.
