Mr Happy always shows
a bibliography at the end of his essays
(1) IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO HAND IN YOUR HOMEWORK ON TIME. It is NOT your teachers job to remind you to do the work.
(2) Please DO NOT e-mail homework (it can get lost) - place it inside the RED BOX in the Laws classroom BEFORE 3.15pm ON THE DATE SHOWN. You will lose marks if you hand in an essay which does not show an essay plan. If your homework is handed in late (even by just a few seconds) or without aSelf-assessment Sheet - you will be given a fail grade.
(3) IF YOUR ESSAY IS THIN and/or lacks depth and analysis YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO DO IT AGAIN. Plan a structured answer to the question - start early because the first draft is generally unacceptable.
Follow the 'Essay writing guidance'.
