The following AS, A Level and GCSE practical performance components are assessed by visiting moderation:
To arrange a visit, you must submit your visit and moderation arrangements by 21 February.
Visit arrangements must be submitted using the Cambridge OCR PE Moderation Service, part of our single sign-on service, My Cambridge. You will be able to submit the June 2025 series arrangements from January 2025. Take a look at our guidance on how to access and submit your visit arrangement form.
After all the centres attending your moderation day (your cluster) have submitted their visit and moderation arrangements, your allocated moderator will contact you to make arrangements for your moderation visit. We aim to have all visits arranged by 15 March.
You must submit your entries by the deadline of 21 February. For support on making entries, please see our website and the entry codes booklet for general qualifications.
Once you have made your entries, you will be able to submit your marks. The earliest you’ll be able to submit marks is early February.
All marks must be submitted by 15 March. Not submitting marks by the deadline puts students at risk of not receiving their results on results day and may prompt a malpractice investigation.
Activity marks are submitted via our secure website, the PE Moderation Service from the start of February. When you submit your activity marks, the service will automatically calculate the overall component marks. You can then use these to submit your component marks as usual via Interchange or EDI.
For guidance on how to submit activity marks, see our step-by-step instructions.
Centres offering AS and A Level Physical Education (H155/04/05 and H555/05/06) and GCSE Physical Education (9-1) (J587/04) must film the following:
For all filmed evidence, you must make sure candidates can be clearly identified and linked to the assessment forms.
This can be achieved by the use of lettered or numbered coloured bibs and a commentary or through accompanying documentation. When considering coloured bibs, please do not use yellow or white as these colours do not show up well on camera.
For details on how to upload PE filmed evidence, see our step-by-step instructions.
The full list of off-site activities is shown below. Everything on this list must be filmed. If there is an activity you cannot film, this activity cannot be assessed and you must use an alternative activity.
You must upload a copy of this filmed evidence to us via Submit for Assessment by the marks submission deadline of 15 March.
If no filmed evidence is provided then a mark cannot be awarded to your student.
For AS and A Level PE, you need to upload a sample of on-site filmed evidence for at least eight candidate performances, across at least three activities, encompassing a range of marks – ideally top, middle and lowest mark in each of the three activities.
You must film all candidates involved in moderation on the day of moderation.
All performances the moderator sees must be recorded as they happen.
You must upload a copy of the filmed evidence with the moderation day cover sheet to us via Submit for Assessment within ten working days of the moderation day.
Providing this filmed evidence to us is a requirement of the qualification. If you do not submit the filmed evidence this will prompt a maladministration investigation. It will also impact our ability to carry out a full review of moderation.
