Just what the title says really. Does anyone know where my dd can find a copy of the mark scheme for literature coursework? She's re-writing Her coursework and would like a copy of the mark scheme to see what she needs to do to access the top grade boundaries.
Thanks

I've tried to attach a screen grab but otherwise look here and it's section 7.3 in the syllabus you can download

It's a good job she has OMAN books from a her previous school and she's realised she left that. She's busy revising for end of year mocks in June so she can correct and errors now. She has a love-hate feeling towards of mice and men...but she's just editing her essay and then back to revision

Is she in year 10? I wish I could get my students to edit their work and revise at home!

She's in year10 independent school. She's 16 but after a long hard battle with anxiety issues and bulimia caused by school issues I took her out and home educated until she was better and the only way to get in back into school was private school and to repeat year10 due to missing the whole of year10. She's always be a hard worker and is predicted A*s but due to anxiety issues they have told her a mixture of A's and B's so she doesn't put herself under pressure. But the whole year group generally start revising round about Easter hold as after half term they have 6 weeks until end of year mocks so it's better to prepare well ahead.

Haha, I teach in a school for boys with social, emotional and behavioural difficulties so the other end of the spectrum in some ways (although we have lots of students who suffer with anxiety and different types of self harm too). If.I'm lucky my year 11s might do a little bit of homework... Grin
