What is a Marking Time booking?

Marking time bookings make it easy for your tutor to review and mark work without meeting in the lesson space. You might want to make a marking time booking if you have an essay you’d like your tutor to give feedback on, or a past paper you need marking.

You can book and pay for marking time same way you would for a lesson: 

1. Send request - When booking, parents and students can select 'marking time' from the Bookings page:

2. Send and assess work - You can send work to your tutor via the attachment function in the messages. Click on the attachment icon in messages to attach your work:

The tutor can check the attachment to confirm how long it'll take them to complete the marking work.

If it’s a long piece of work, your tutor might need more than 1 hour marking time to complete it. In this case, you can book in multiple marking time slots.

3. Confirm deadline and make payment - The session time will act as the submission date. Be sure to confirm this with your tutor and please ensure that payment is made before the sessions start time to confirm it!

4. Receive work - The tutor will return your work to you via the attachment function in your messages before the submission time.
