Aim:
- To ensure there is an accredited lead internal verifier in each principal subject area
- To ensure that internal verification is valid, reliable and covers all assessors and programme activity
- To ensure that the internal verification procedure is open, fair and free from bias
- To ensure that there is accurate and detailed recording of internal verification decisions
In order to do this, Brighton Holistics will ensure that:
- A lead internal verifier for each principal subject area
- Each lead internal verifier oversees effective internal verification systems within each principal subject area
- The whole team are briefed and trained in the requirements for current internal verification procedures
- Effective internal verification roles are defined, maintained and supported
- Internal verification is promoted as a developmental process between the team
- Standardised internal verification documentation is provided and used
- All centre assessment instruments are verified as fit for purpose
- An annual internal verification schedule, linked to assessment plans, is in place
- An appropriately structured sample of assessment from all programmes, sites and teams is internally verified, to ensure centre programmes conform to national standards and standards verification requirements
- Secure records of all internal verification activity are maintained
- The outcome of internal verification is used to enhance future assessment practice
This policy will be reviewed every 12 months by the Brighton Holistics Team
