LEARNER ASSIGNMENT BRIEF
BRIEF
Birstall Pit is a small village two miles from the nearest town and shops. It was established
in 1865 as a mining village. The village is dominated by one road, with large strips of
terraced housing on either side. A major road runs alongside the village which links the
nearest towns and other villages.
For many years, the village had a number of empty properties, but recently, many houses
have been sold to young families who have chosen to move into the village, as a result of
the strong community spirt within the area and the improvements that have started to take
place within the community. A new primary school has been opened, and the old school has
been turned into a nursery, which accepts local children, but is also well subscribed with
children from neighbouring towns. The position of the nursery is ideal for parents ,who pass
by the village on their way to work in the nearby town.
A group of residents from the village has met with the local council to present ideas for how
the village could be further developed. These include:
•
•
•
•
Creating a tourist attraction of the old pit and/or the canal to attract visitors
Developing the old pit head offices for start-up businesses with an emphasis on new
craft enterprises
Converting the land to allotments with priority to those in the village but also available
to people from other local villages and the nearby town
Developing new “meeting places” to promote the existing community spirit , and cater
for the changing clientele that now live or pass through the village
The Economic Regeneration Department of the local authority has agreed to set aside
funding for small grants to businesses that open in the village and create employment.
You see this as an opportunity to open new hospitality and catering provisions in the village.

Extract from Ratby Advertiser
Supermarket extension
given go ahead
Ratby council today gave planning
permission to McCourts to extend their
supermarket in the west of the town. A
representative of McCourts said ‘We are
really pleased that we finally have the go
ahead for our plans. We will be creating
46 new part-time posts and there will be
lots of new services, including a cafe’.
There has been a lot of opposition to the
plans, mainly from those living in Birstall
Pit and East Sibson. Jo Candy, a local
councillor said ‘Surely, the town should
be looking at creating services in the east
of the town, nearer Birstall Pit and East
Sibson . McCourts is the nearest
supermarket for our residents and it is
two bus-rides away’.

CENTRE INFORMATION
WJEC Approach to Assessment
The WJEC Level 1/2 Award in Hospitality and Catering has adopted the principles of
controlled assessment as set out in the Joint Council for Qualifications document ‘GCE,
ELC, and Project Qualifications – instructions for conducting coursework’. This document
can be accessed through the JCQ website (www.jcq.org.uk).
Unit 1: The Hospitality and Catering Industry of the WJEC Level 1/2 Award in Hospitality
and Catering is assessed according to the following principles:
•
•
•
All units are assessed through summative controlled assessment. Details of controls
for this unit are provided in this assessment
All specified assessment criteria must be met under controlled conditions, as given in
this assessment, for the unit learning outcomes to be achieved
Performance bands for Level 2 Merit and Level 2 Distinction can only apply once a
candidate has achieved all assessment criteria at the level of qualification to be
awarded. Evidence must clearly show how the candidate has met the standard for
the higher grades
There are three stages of assessment that will be controlled:
•
•
•
Task setting
Task taking
Task marking
Task setting
This assignment has been produced by WJEC. The assignment cannot be changed. This
assignment follows the approach required for internally assessed units:
•
•
•
•
Each unit is assessed through one assignment
Each assessment has a brief that sets out an applied purpose. An applied purpose
is a reason for completing the tasks that would benefit a business or society. Further
details are in Section 1.2 of the specification
The assessment can specify a number of tasks but tasks must be coherent i.e. show
how the assessment requirements all contribute to the achievement of the applied
purpose of the assignment
The assessment will assess all learning outcomes. It will indicate which assessment
criteria are targeted for the assessment
Task taking
There are five areas of task taking that are controlled: time, resources, supervision,
collaboration and resubmission.
Time
There are six hours available for assessment of this unit. Centres must log the supervised
sessions on the attached form.

outside of supervised activities.
Supervision is in place to ensure the authenticity of evidence produced for summative
assessment. Assessors are not expected to provide input or guidance to learners during the
controlled assessment time. This includes providing formative feedback on the evidence
being produced, guidance on the requirements of the task or how performance bands can be
