ILO: Discipline-specific skills
- 4. Be aware of information contained in anatomical texts
ILO: Personal and key skills
- 5. Demonstrate team-working skills
- 6. Demonstrate heightened awareness of our bodies and its form and function
Syllabus plan

Re-assessment notes
Deferral – if you miss an assessment for certificated reasons judged acceptable by the Mitigation Committee, you will normally be either deferred in the assessment or an extension may be granted. The mark given for a re-assessment taken as a result of deferral will not be capped and will be treated as it would be if it were your first attempt at the assessment.
Referral – if you have failed the module overall (i.e. a final overall module mark of less than 50%) you will be required to submit a further assessment as necessary. The mark given for a re-assessment taken as a result of referral will be capped at 50%.
