• Grammar mainly accurate with occasional common errors that do not affect overall clarity.
• Spelling and punctuation are mostly correct.

Sometimes successful in adapting phrases from the Data File to create grammatically correct
sentences. This is done through some of: word formation changes, tense changes, pronoun changes

• Grammatical errors occur in more complex structures but overall clarity not affected.
• Spelling and punctuation are sufficiently accurate to convey meaning.

Occasionally successful in adapting phrases from the Data File to create grammatically correct
sentences though more often errors occur due to failing to change the original texts to the
requirements of his/her own text.
Own Language
• Simple sentences are generally accurately constructed. Occasional attempts are made to use
more complex sentences. Structures used tend to be repetitive in nature.
• Grammatical errors sometimes affect meaning.
• Most common words are spelt correctly, with basic punctuation being accurate.

Writing characterised by occasional attempts to adapt language from Data File or by chunks taken
verbatim from the Data File.
Own Language
• Short simple sentences are generally accurate. Only scattered attempts at longer, more complex
sentences.
• Grammatical errors often affect meaning.
• Spelling of simple words is correct, more complex ones not, with basic punctuation mostly
accurate.

Writing characterised by being mostly a series of chunks taken verbatim from the Data File.

Task 5: Coherence and Organisation (C) = 2 marks
Marks Coherence and Organisation

2 • Overall coherence of text very good with a clear focus on task throughout.
• Relations between main points and supporting points always clear.
• Strong cohesive ties used to enhance coherence when necessary.
1 • Overall coherence of text is reasonable with a reasonably clear focus on task throughout.
• The relations between main points and supporting points generally clear.
• Cohesive ties used generally enhance coherence although these may occasionally be fuzzy.
0 • Overall coherence of description is weak.

• Supporting details generally not clearly related to main points.
• Cohesive ties used contribute little to the coherence of the text.
OR
• Not enough evidence in candidate’s work to be able to award ‘ 1’.
Task 5: Appropriacy (A) = 2 marks
Marks Appropriacy
2 • Register, tone and style generally appropriate through manipulation of parts of Data File and own
language.
• The candidate has produced a text appropriate for task.
1 • Register, tone and style reasonably appropriate to the text through some manipulation of parts of
Data File and through own language.
• Tone may be inconsistent due to parts being copied verbatim from the Data File.
0 • Little or no evidence of an ability to manipulate register, tone or style in order to produce an

appropriate text.
• The candidate has written a text which is characterised by having copied chunks of the Data File
indiscriminately. Does not give the impression of the writer’s own text written to fulfil the task.
Key appropriacy areas include (but are not limited to):

• It is a script for an instruction video which the children will hear just before they go into the Mars
Experience Room. The audience is the children. This should be clear throughout.
• This will most clearly be done by addressing the children using ‘you’ in the direct instructions.
• It is a spoken text.
• We would expect some sort of introduction to the activity (e.g. welcoming the children) and some sort of
rounding off.
• There should be some sort of sense that it is an interesting or exciting activity that they are going to do. So
we may expect some encouraging phrases or references to the Mars Experience scenario, references to it
being an adventure and so on.

Key coherence and organisation areas include (but are not limited to):
• There should be a consistent refusal and invitation in the email for it to be coherent. Lack of clarity or
actual contradictions in this respect would have a negative effect on coherence.

affect overall coherence.

invitation than the refusal.

with the body of the email.

appropriate text.

Starpod’s continuing support, hoping that these alternative arrangements are to their liking, that we look
forward to Locae’s further communication regarding this matter etc.).
