Assessment criteria – Performance descriptors

How do Trinity College London examiners assess a candidate’s performance?

Performance descriptors are used for the assessment of all tasks within the Portfolio, Controlled Written examination paper and Interview at all ISE levels. Examiners and markers use the performance descriptors in combination with the specific requirements of the relevant ISE level (as detailed in the ISE syllabus) when making their assessments.
