Fetac Module Assignment Grading System

    Im currently doing a Multimeda Production course in a college I would rather not name but our TV and Radio Production lecturer was replaced half way through the year by a woman that has never taught in a college before and doesn't know how things are run whatsoever.

    We were assigned to make a 15 minute documentary 2 weeks before we went on a 2 week holiday break. Only catch was we weren't allowed to use cameras over the 2 weeks as they were not under insurance by the college. This mean we had only 2 weeks to do the documentary and unfortunately in the assigned area we were given none of the locations would allow us to film, saying it was illegal or we needed our own insurance to film there.

    This assignment is worth 50% of our grade for the entire module which seems like an overly large grade for a single assignment, has anyone else had an assignment like this being worth the majority of your grade? Is there any way I could contest my final mark due to the poor planning of the teacher and assigning what is essentially an impossible assignment?
