Dd got 3 questions right(fractions) but only half the marks in each because she didn't show her workings. Written on paper that this was the case.
Seems harsh.
Dd has forbidden me from querying it with teacher (fierce) so won't be but would just like to know out of interest if this is the norm and the reason.
She did well but those 3 marks would have raised her percentage.

Is it normal to lose marks in a maths exam if you got a question right bu didn't show workings?
