We'll use the Q1/A1 format in the chat, so please let us know which question you're referring to with A1, A2 etc. The moderator will try to keep up with the questions.

 * Q4: In a concept-based, criterion-assessed programme we should be able to make authentic assessment work. What are the challenges? #MYPChat
