, General marking guidance
• All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark the last candidate in
exactly the same way as they mark the first.
• Mark schemes should be applied positively. Candidates must be rewarded for what they have
shown they can do rather than be penalised for omissions.
• 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 candidate’s response is not worthy of credit
according to the mark scheme.
• Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will provide the principles by which marks
will be awarded and exemplification/indicative content will not be exhaustive.
• 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.
• Crossed-out work should be marked unless the candidate has replaced it with an alternative
response.
Marking guidance – specific
The marking grids have been designed to assess student work holistically. The grids identify which
Assessment Objective is being targeted by each bullet point within the level descriptors. 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 deciding how to reward an answer, examiners should consult both the indicative content
and the associated marking grid(s). 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. Candidates will be placed in
the level that best describes their answer according to each of the Assessment Objectives
described in the level. 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. They must consider this when making their judgements
● the mark grid identifies which Assessment Objective is being targeted by each bullet point
within the level descriptors
● indicative content is exactly that – they are factual points that candidates are likely to use to
construct their answer. 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 fulfil the requirements of the question. It is the examiner’s responsibility to apply their
professional judgement to the candidate’s response in determining if the answer fulfils the
requirements of the question.
