Assessment and Mock Submission Deadlines
Following student feedback, we have added the submission deadlines for your Interim Assessment, Final Assessment and Mock Exam scripts on to the main timetables.
These are indicated by the pink squares on the tuition and revision planners and are there for you to easily refer to.
Please note that you are NOT required to attend college on those dates. They are the dates by which you should submit your script to the centre for marking. The majority of students email their scripts.

ACCA Courses
Tuition Courses
Kaplan Tuition courses are between 3 and 5 days (6 and 10 evenings) in duration depending on syllabus content. Tuition covers the knowledge behind the key examinable areas with each module.
All courses end in time for students to join the revision course of their choice.
We offer the following different course types to suit your study needs:
Weekday Block Tuition
Courses are held during the week in short blocks of 1, 2 or 3 days, depending on the duration of
the full course. These courses are ideal if you can get study leave during the week but can’t
commit to a set day per week.
Materials and Resources: Included in your course will be the Kaplan Study Text, Study Notes and access to your MyKaplan online study resources (more information overleaf).
Revision Courses
Kaplan Revision courses are between 2 – 5 days in duration depending on course type and subject. The revision course reinforces student knowledge via question practice.
The following revision course types are offered:
Weekday Revision
These are 2-4 days in duration, in small blocks of days, allowing students to focus on one subject at
a time. They are ideal for students who are able to take time off work.
Materials and Resources: Included in your course will be the Kaplan Exam Kit and Pocket Notes and access to lots of resources on your online study portal, MyKaplan (more information overleaf).
MyKaplan - Your Personalised Online Study Space
MyKaplan, your personalised online study space, has many features to help you manage your courses and learning better, such as: course calendars, task reminders, 'email my tutor' button and access to your online forums.
You will also have all your subject-specific study resources, via the Learning and Testing tab, which are released at strategic points throughout the course. These will be allocated into folders, to help you identify where
each resource is designed to fit into your overall programme of study. The folders are Prepare, Practise and Perform. Your resources may include:

Which ACCA courses should I sit next?
ACCA's basic rules
Skills Module (6 papers)
Modules must be sat in order: Skills, then Essentials, then Options
Within a module, papers can be sat in any order.
You can overlap two modules, as long as you're attempting all the remaining papers in the lower module.
For example, you can do F9 and P1 in the same exam sitting, if F9 is the only paper you have outstanding in the Skills module.
Essentials Module (3 papers)
Options Module (2 papers, from 4)
Kaplan recommendations
If you're studying part-time and are working (or have other commitments) we recommend that you attempt no more than 2
papers per exam sitting, allowing you to fully focus on those two.

Option*
In order to keep your qualification on track, you should sit exams in both the June and December sitting.
Your selection of two papers should be based on various aspects, such as:
Employer requirements
If you work in Practice then you may wish to focus on Financial Reporting and Audit first; whilst if you work in Industry then Management Accounting would
be a priority.
Tax year*
It is best to initially sit your tax exams (F6 and optional P6) in June, as the same Finance Act will be examined in December, should you need to resit.
Otherwise, you'll need to learn a new Finance Act.
Study balance
It often helps to combine a 'wordy' paper with a 'numerical' paper - balancing your personal preference and skills for one that you like, with one that you
don't.
Exemptions
If you have an exemption from a Skills paper, you may struggle to pass that subject at a higher level, in the Options module.
We've done some pass rate analysis on the best paper combinations, based on two papers at a time.
View our recommendations in the table to the right.
For a personalised recommendation, based on your individual circumstances, please speak to your local Kaplan
centre.
