This is in accordance to the following flowchart:

Are initial moderated assessment marks subjected to a separate aligning process to the examination marks? According to the flow chart it seems so.
If this is true then how is this achieved? Doesn't aligning involve a standards setting procedure where judges determine the band cut-offs by viewing student responses?
How is this done in aligning moderated assessment marks when given only the raw assessment marks and the moderated assessment marks? At least examination marks can be aligned by judges viewing student responses, but this is not supplied in school assessment marks.
