Submission instructions
If you are submitting your identity text as a separate document, there might be a problem with Turnitin (it won’t process anything less than 20 words). Please don’t worry about this. If you can see your document in ‘File submissions’, it means we can too and we will mark it. There is no need for the identity text part of the assessment to go through Turnitin.
