DECLARATION OF ORIGINALITY
I understand that all my project work must be my own unaided work. If I make use of material from any other sources I must clearly identify it as such in any interviews, reports, or
examinations. I understand that my reports must be written unaided in my own words, apart from any quoted material which I must identify clearly in the correct manner .
I understand that the work which I shall present for assessment must be work carried out by
myself only during the project period which has not been previously prepared. Where any such previous work is make use of in the project, I shall make this clear in any interviews, reports or
examinations .
I understand that violation of these conditions may result in a mark of zero for the component or components of assessed work affected .
