At Gower College Swansea, assignments are often put through Turnitin software to check that the work you are submitting is your own work.  If you are worried or would like to check your work BEFORE submitting the final piece of work, you can do so here. Please check with your Tutor as to what is an acceptable percentage of similarity.

We have a vast amount of support resources available online to help you with your studies.
