I'd imagine it varies depending on which exam board you are using.

As far as I know it is the 15th May. Well AQA state that on their key dates calendar but other exam boards may be different.

You're teachers set deadlines for a reason. It can be very time consuming to mark coursework especially in large volumes especially if there is something in it that needs corrected. I know that when I qualify I'll not be marking work if it's not in by the deadline I set unless there's a good reason for it.

There may only be 4 people in YOUR class but what about all the other subjects and classes that the teacher takes i.e. GCSE with say 15-30 pupils in each class? All of which will have coursework to be marked too.

He only teaches this class of 4 people.
