All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark the
first candidate in exactly the same way as they mark the last.
Examiners should mark according to the mark scheme not according to their
perception of where the grade boundaries may lie.
All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be awarded. Examiners
should always award full marks if deserved, i.e. if the answer matches the
mark scheme. Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if the
candidates 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 candidates response, the team leader must be consulted.
Crossed out work should be marked UNLESS the candidate has replaced it
with an alternative response.
Mark schemes will indicate within the table where, and which strands of
QWC, are being assessed. The strands are as follows:
i) ensure that text is legible and that spelling, punctuation and grammar are
accurate so that meaning is clear
ii) select and use a form and style of writing appropriate to purpose and to
complex subject matter
iii) organise information clearly and coherently, using specialist vocabulary
when appropriate
