# Vocational type 1/BTEC markbook

**Vocational type 1** style markbooks are designed to make it easy to track progress on learning outcomes in BTEC and similar style qualifications. Each marksheet within the markbook can be marked as core, mandatory, or other and represents a unit that is worth **credits/guided learning hours (GLH)**.

 

**Note**: For simplicity GO 4 Schools refers to units being worth credits, but be aware that some BTEC qualification specifications refer to GLH instead of credits. The calculations are the same, regardless of terminology.

Internal assessment marksheets typically contain an assessment per learning outcome within the unit. External assessment sheets can record the result of one or more attempts at an externally assessed unit. The current grade will calculated by assessing if the student has accrued enough credits and then converting those credits into points to calculate the student's grade.

This calculation will also check that a result has been recorded for all core and mandatory units (a near pass for an external unit and a pass for an internal unit are treated as accepted outcomes for a mandatory unit), and that sufficient points have been scored across the core units.
