Introduction to the A2 Coursework Module
The mark scheme for this module is here.
Here is a link to another school's site which has sample coursework on.
Here is coursework that received 99%. Use this as a guide but do not copy!
The A2 coursework involves creating a database for an organisation of your choice. If two students choose the
same organisation, their work should be very different.

Organisations which students have chosen in the past have been:
- A paintballing organisation
- A function room
- A bed and breakfast
- Limo hire
- Holiday home hire
- Entertainer/magician hire
- Golf lessons
- Driving lessons
- Bouncy castle hire
- A hair or beauty salon
- A local school (you would have to base it on a specific task, eg a school trip)
- Roby Sixth Form College
You should see the coursework as an opportunity to show your examiner exactly how capable you are. Every
document should be well written and well presented:
- Use a similar header for each page
- Use a footer which contains the drive and document name, so that you can always find each document. Make
sure the documents and files have sensible names
- Don't page number your first draft, just make sure you keep everything in order
- Annotate every screenshot
- Use the same font style and size (maximum size 12 - use a professional font eg not Comic Sans) on each document
- Use Control and Enter to page-break
