Pathway / Innovator

Own the question. Defend the method. Report the limitation.

Innovator supports independent enquiry with defined review points; independence does not remove supervision, safety or accountability.

A proposal review is required before any high-complexity build or public-facing project begins.

01
BIAA / BRIEF

The learner develops the brief

A proposal identifies the problem, intended contribution, prior work, constraints, method, milestones and evidence plan. Scope is challenged before construction begins.

02
BIAA / REVIEW

Review points protect both rigour and momentum

Mentor reviews focus on assumptions, safety, method, evidence and authorship. They do not replace learner decisions or turn the project into a prewritten recipe.

03
BIAA / COMMUNICATION

A final claim must remain proportional

The learner separates demonstrated results from interpretation and future possibility. A prototype is labelled as a prototype; a small test is not generalised into a deployment claim.
