Examiners must mark the last
candidate in exactly the same way as they mark the first
...
Candidates must be rewarded for what
they have shown they can do rather than be penalised for omissions
...




All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be awarded
...
e
...

Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if the candidate’s response
is not worthy of credit according to the mark scheme
...




When examiners are in doubt regarding the application of the mark scheme to a
candidate’s response, a senior examiner must be consulted before a mark is given
...


Marking Guidance - specific
The marking grids have been designed to assess student work holistically
...
One bullet point is linked to one Assessment Objective, however
please note that the number of bullet points in the level descriptor does not directly
correlate to the number of marks in the level descriptor
...
When using a levels-based mark scheme,
the ‘best fit’ approach should be used:


examiners should first decide which descriptor most closely matches the answer
and place it in that level



the mark awarded within the level will be decided based on the quality of the
answer and will be modified according to how securely all bullet points are
displayed at that level



in cases of uneven performance, the points above will still apply
...
Marks will be awarded towards the
top or bottom of that level depending on how they have evidenced each of the

descriptor bullet points


examiners of Advanced GCE English should remember that all Assessment
Objectives within a level are equally weighted
...
It is possible for an answer to be
constructed without mentioning some or all of these points, as long as they
provide alternative responses to the indicative content that fulfils the
requirements of the question
...


Paper 2 Mark scheme
Indicative content
Question 1
Text A
Candidates must demonstrate a critical understanding of the concepts and issues
relevant to an analysis of Jasper’s written language
...
A simple essay response identifying features
without explanation is not sufficient

development and how the language in the data supports such theories or challenges
them
