FAQs: Society and Culture Personal Interest Project (PIP)

What happens if a teacher suspects that a student is submitting work that is not their own?
All PIPs must be developed and produced by the student under the supervision of the Society and Culture teacher. Schools must have procedures in place to ensure the effective supervision of the development of work by the students. If the teacher is unable to verify that the work a student is submitting has been entirely developed and written by themselves, the teacher should complete the Non-certification form (available on Schools Online in Memos and Documents), including an explanation of why the teacher believes this to be the case. The student should also complete this form, where they can refute or verify the allegations.
