Unit 5 Travel and Tourism - MERIT assessed work student example

This is a complete portfolio of student work who has been graded and assessed at MERIT level for Unit 5 on the EDEXCEL Btech travel and tourism award. This unit showcases various factors that effect tourism at a world-wide level and the resource focuses on the following elements of learning aim A ( climate in Portugal, snowfall in the Alps, Hurricane season in Florida). In learning aim B it discusses passport and visa requirements for the USA, and health precautions and advice for travel to Columbia, Africa and Thailand, with a case study focus on the Ebola outbreak. This work has been sent off and externally moderated and acts as an example for other pupils and schools to follow- given the lack of examplar material from the exam board. This meets the criteria for the older specification which is valid for summer 2019 exam series. The work shows how the teacher has annotated the work prior to moderation to show where assessment criteria has been met. We have used this with our students to help them understand the written quality and presentation required for a high mark.
