Is it possible for a Centre to offer Component 3 to a single student?

For Component 3, Team Project, there is a requirement for candidates to work as part of a team, with a minimum team size of two candidates. Candidates must not complete this component on their own, as the assessment requires working in a team and evaluating the effectiveness of the collaboration undertaken by the team.

Where there is only one candidate taking the course or a candidate has been left alone taking the course after other candidates have withdrawn, centres should arrange for the single candidate to work with a non-assessed team member to complete the Team Project. Non-assessed team members could be from another class or year group and do not need to be Global Perspectives students. The Team Project is assessed individually; therefore, non-assessed team members do not need to submit the Team Project as their work would not be considered in the final mark for the single candidate.
