You'll need
to earn 65 points or more in your radio course in order to pass and
gain a Radio School Certificate of Excellence. Points are awarded in all sections of
each course. In total a maximum of 100 points can be awarded.
80% and above - Pass with distinction.
Shows exceptional learning abilities and can demonstrate all basic
essential skills required. Shows great progress in what's been taught. A
mark of 80% or higher is awarded when a candidate satisfies the
requirements for a distinction, but only to an outstanding degree.
65/80% - Pass.
A good satisfactory pass, displays good radio course progress and student
is able to demonstrate an understanding of the basic issues required.
0/65% - Fail. Showing no learning
ability or real understanding of the radio presenter DJ course. Unable to demonstrate
in a practical manner any basic issues connected with the given radio
course. Failure of a course is when, after much consideration, The
Radio School examiner (Rod Lucas) believes a student doesn't have any of the
required basic skills and learning ability to move on and progress in
radio presentation and production.
