New set assignments for Cambridge Nationals in Child Development

Cambridge Nationals in Child Development Level 1/2 J818

We have published a new collection of Child Development set assignments for both moderated units (R019 and R020), which we have titled ‘Set Assignment 2’.

The current set assignments are now named as ‘Set Assignment 1’.

The set assignments are located on the Assessment section of the Child Development qualification web page. 

Frequently asked questions

I have already taught the majority of a unit and my learners are about to start an assignment. Can I use either Set Assignment 1 or Set Assignment 2?

You can choose whether to use Set Assignment 1 or Set Assignment 2, depending on which scenario you prefer, or that suits your centre better. These assignments are for summative assessment (once the teaching phase is complete) so your teaching is not affected by the introduction of new assignments. 

My learners are part-way through an assignment. Do they have to switch to Set Assignment 2?

No, a switch is not necessary. The tasks in Set Assignment 2 are different to those in Set Assignment 1, but they're still assessing the learning for the same learning outcomes.

I am teaching a new cohort of students from September 2020 – will I have to change any of the teaching content?

These assignments are for summative assessment (once the teaching phase is complete), so your teaching is not affected by the introduction of new assignments.
