Summative project briefs (SPBs) A Summative Project Brief (SPB) substitutes for a formal examination. It is a project brief set by Edexcel and is the means by which students' attainment is assessed. Students are expected to spend approximately 30 hours of classroom time working on a project. The SPB is not a vehicle for teaching the course. Teachers should act as 'line managers' to students working on an SPB. They can monitor their progress, offer advice, make suggestions for improvement etc. If students require additional support and guidance this must be reflected in the marks they are awarded. Identification SPBs are identified by their unit number and the month of release. For example, the D201 brief published in September 2006 is identified as D201 SPB0906. All existing briefs have been re-titled to match this convention. Life span SPBs have a limited life span. Those issued in September 2005 (0905) are valid for moderation in January 2007, June 2007 and January 2008. Those issued in September 2006 (0906) will be valid for moderation in June 2007, January 2008, June 2008 and January 2009. The next set of project briefs will be released in September 2007 (0907) and will be valid for moderation in June 2008, January 2009, June 2009 and January 2010. SPBs that are no longer valid have been archived and may be used for practice purposes.
