Mark Scheme for Specimen Paper 1
Give 1 mark for each of these points. Do not award the mark if the answer is simply copied. [4]
Question 1 (g): Re-read lines 46-49. Explain in your own words what the writer means by this
paragraph.
(i) Older boys are more cautious. They remember their fear / their fear prevents actions
(ii) Younger boys act as they feel. They do not allow their actions to be confused by what
is past

affected by fear. [4]
Question 1 (h): Re-read lines 1-3. What three words does the writer use to show how Eric was
affected by the storm? Explain what each of the words suggests about the strength of the storm.
(i) collapsed: enough to tire him out OR to blow him over
(ii) gasping: made him use all his energy so that he could not breathe

Give 1 mark for each word and 1 mark for an adequate explanation of the strength of the wind.
[6]
Question 1 (i): In line 6 why do you think the writer does not just say the noise of the storm?
(i) noise is a general / ordinary word without any specific meaning
(ii) moan suggests a continuous / high-pitched / sound that only high winds make
(iii) moan sounds like a human or an animal, expressing sadness or danger
Give 1 mark for any of these points up to a maximum of 2. [2]
Maximum marks for Question 1: 30
Mark Scheme for Specimen Paper 1
Question 2
General notes on likely content
The father may be inferred to be:
loving towards and proud of his son
sensible and practical minded
influential
cultured (the book, the quotation).
Better candidates will show this in their choice of language and in their expression of the fathers
opinion of Eric.
In his journal the father may refer to:
Erics decision to stay in the hut, facing the danger, rather than going back into the storm
his bravery when waiting for the attack
his remembering the book and the quotation
his remembering the matches and the candles
his reactions to the seal.
Also expect candidates to discuss the seal in the fathers voice. This animal may be rare and need
conservation or perhaps it might be worth a great deal of money. If the father were to discuss this
moral dilemma in his journal, the answer would be heading for a high mark.
Marking criteria for Question 2:
The question is marked out of 10 for reading and out of 10 for writing.
(a) READING (Using and understanding the material) (CORE TIER)
Use the following table to give a mark out of 10
Band 1 9-10 Uses and develops several ideas, both factual and inferential, from the
story. Demonstrates and develops attitudes towards Eric and towards the
seal.
Band 2 7-8 Refers to several events from the passage and comments on Erics
reactions. Makes comments about the seal, in particular its beauty.
Band 3 5-6 Repeats some details from the story and says what Eric did. Focuses on
the question and on the passage, but uses material simply and partially.
Band 4 3-4 There is some relevance to the question with a tendency to retell the story
rather than to comment. Makes a simple reference to the seal.
Band 5 1-2 May retell the story or give occasional relevant facts. There may be
examples of misunderstanding or lack of clarity in attempting to use the
passage.
0 Very little/no relevance. General misunderstanding of task and passage.
Mark Scheme for Specimen Paper 1
(b) WRITING (Core tier)
Use the following table to give a mark out of 10.
Band 1 9-10 Sentences are fluent and there is a fairly wide range of vocabulary.
Overall structure is good and sentences generally follow in sequence.
Most full stops are correct and errors are infrequent and minor. The
fathers voice is established.
Band 2 7-8 Sentences are correct, though relatively simple. Vocabulary is adequate
and correctly used. There are some sentence separation errors and quite
frequent other errors, although minor. There are some hints of the fathers
voice.
Band 3 5-6 Sentence structures and vocabulary are simple, but meaning is never in
doubt. The order is reasonable. Error may be frequent, but it does not blur
meaning.
Band 4 3-4 The answer is very simply written and there are occasional examples of
blurred meaning. The structure can usually be followed. Some error is
serious, affecting meaning.
Band 5 1-2 The answer is difficult to understand. The extent of grammatical error
seriously impedes meaning.
0 The answer cannot be understood.
Add the marks for Reading and Writing to give a total mark out of 20 for Question 2.

SPECIMEN PAPER 2: READING PASSAGES (EXTENDED)
MARK SCHEME
Examiners should refer to the Instructions to Examiners handbook for general administrative
guidance.
NB : All Examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected approaches in
candidates scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant knowledge and skills
demonstrated.
Question 1
General notes on likely content
Of the three paragraphs required in this answer, the first is likely to be the most creative, while the
second and third will be derived more directly from the facts in the passage. Remember that
candidates are instructed: 'Base your ideas on what you have read in the passage. Use details
from the passage to exemplify your ideas.'
Can you describe what happened to you during the earthquake and what you did immediately
afterwards?
Look for a lifelike description of the earthquake and how the mayor escaped serious injury. Good
candidates may infer details about the sound construction of the mayors house. Afterwards look
for details of her/his family and people. Reward feelings about the scenes of suffering, shock and
trapped victims, perhaps some guilt about own good fortune. Attempts to get help would be
thwarted by bad conditions. Expect reasonable connections to the passage.
What are the needs of your people at the present time?
May connect well with the previous paragraph. Look for development of:
rescue where possible
the facing of trauma and shock
medical treatment
housing (tent cities)
rescue workers
How do you think that devastation on this scale can be prevented in the future?
Look for ideas about
reconstruction of houses (reward full explanations)
possible rebuilding away from fault lines
warnings of earthquakes
allow reference to training of emergency services

Marking criteria
This question is marked out of 15 for Content and out of 5 for Structure of Answer and Use of
Appropriate Language.
A CONTENT (EXTENDED TIER)
Use the following table to give a mark out of 15
Band 1 13-15 All three sections contribute to an overall appreciation of the main points of
the passage: human tragedy, failure to respond fast enough, problems at
governmental level. Ideas from the passage are developed throughout with
understanding and originality. Own ideas are consistently well related to the
passage.
Band 2 10-12 There are examples of well-developed ideas from the passage. (For
example, points made in answer to the second and third questions do not
look like answers to a simple comprehension test.) The passage is well used
although the capacity to develop may not be consistent.
Band 3 7-9 The passage is used satisfactorily, but the answer may not reflect the overall
picture given in the original. There is plenty of reference, but opportunities
for development are not always taken. However, at least two of the
paragraphs show an efficient reading of the passage.
Band 4 4-6 Some reference to the passage is made without much inference or more
than brief, straightforward development. Answers to the first question may
lack probability or original development, but there is some evidence of
general understanding of the main points of the passage.
Band 5 1-3 Answers to the question are given only in general terms and make little
specific reference to the passage.
0 Complete/near complete irrelevance to the passage.
B QUALITY OF WRITING: STRUCTURE OF ANSWER, AND USE OF APPROPRIATE
LANGUAGE (EXTENDED TIER)
Use the following table to give a mark out of 5
Band 1 5 Each paragraph is well sequenced. The argument is very clear and
enhanced by a wide range of effective language.
Band 2 4 Most of the answers consist of orderly sequences of sentences. The
argument is mostly clear and there are some examples of effective
language.
Band 3 3 There are examples of well-sequenced sentences. The argument is fairly
clear and the language is appropriate.
Band 4 2 Occasional attempts are made to sequence sentences. Language is simple
but correctly used.
Band 5 1 Sentences are rarely formed into an effective pattern. Language
communicates general meaning, but is only adequate.
0 Sentence structure and language insufficient to be placed in Band 5.
Mark Scheme for Specimen Paper 2
Question 2
General notes on likely content
This question is marked for the candidates ability to select effective or unusual use of words and for
an understanding of the ways in which the language is effective.
Expect candidates to select words that carry specific meaning additional to general and ordinary
vocabulary.
By referring closely to the language used by the writer, explain how she communicates
(a) the severity of the earthquake:
Words and phrases that might be chosen are:
savaged: very powerful, as of a wild animal; the area (its victim) is torn apart
crumbled: suddenly falling to pieces as if a weight were put upon it; disintegrating into small
parts
any part of this sentence: collapsed when the shock hit at 3.02 am, crushing - all of the
sentence gives the idea of sudden destruction
collapsed: upright one moment, on the floor the next
shock: sounds sudden and explosive
hit: as of someone assaulting someone else
3am: so precise as to reinforce the suddenness
crushing: another word like 'crumbled', suggesting an immediate change of shape.
Allow other explanations if of sufficient understanding of word and context, of some complexity and
adding to the word itself.
.(b) sympathy and motivation for the victims
trapped with 2cm of breathing space: a detail for the reader to imagine and feel
withdrawn and confused: words that describe a state of mind that add to the physical suffering
of a tragedy
sense of unspoken news: share the feeling that things are wrong, but no-one dare ask
emerge from their shocked state: share the feelings of suffering and then having to drag
themselves back to reality
settling into their grim reality: another way of expressing the idea of dragging themselves from
an unreal world of shock to something worse
13000 bodiesdug from the rubble: using numbers to express enormity
the worst disaster to touch Europe: universalising experience by mention of Europe, but using
touch as a human word
Just to touch the patient and say I came here for you : a very moving, human motivation for
a doctor (again, the word touch has many associations)
Tears of exhaustion and emotion in his eyes: physical words that invite us to share emotions.
Mark Scheme for Specimen Paper 2
Marking Criteria
Use the following table to give a mark out of 10
Band 1 9-10 Wide ranging discussion of language with high quality comments that add
meaning and associations to words and demonstrate the writers reasons for
using them. May group choices of words to identify writers objectives.
Band 2 7-8 Reference is made to a good number of words and phrases, some of which
identify the intended effects in both (a) and (b). There is evidence that the
candidate understands the intention of the exercise.
Band 3 5-6 A satisfactory attempt to identify appropriate words and phrases. The
answer gives meanings of words but does not identify effects.
Band 4 3-4 Candidates select words although weaker words may be included while
stronger words are neglected. Explanations are noticeably less well done
and do not add much to the choice of words.
Band 5 1-2 The choice of words is insecure. While the question has been understood,
there is no evidence that the writers choice of language has been
appreciated.
0 Answers do not fit the question. Inappropriate words and phrases are
chosen.
Mark Scheme for Specimen Paper 2
Question 3:
The question is marked out of 15 for Content and 5 for Quality of Writing.
A: CONTENT
in the USA (according to passage)
1 the authorities make children/parents/businesses aware of how to deal with earthquakes
2 people practise ('duck, cover and hold') drills
3 people learn to survive on their own (for 72 hours)/ they do not rely on the state
4 building codes in force/ minimum standards for buildings/ materials
5 'essential service' buildings (allow examples) especially strong/ must pass special tests
6 forecasts made of when quakes are likely
7 when there is a quake, those in charge react immediately
8 resources are well coordinated
9 police/ firefighters/ national guard do their duty immediately
10 they provide essentials/ shelter, food, water for the victims
in Turkey (according to passage)
11 people stay inside their homes risking further accidents/ infections etc
12 they do not know what to do but 'drift' and remain 'shocked and confused'
13 they rely on government, not their survival skills
14 apartments are poorly built
15 many people live in the apartments
16 authorities do not always learn their lessons / next time it is just as bad
17 people 'pour' into the area to help but are not co-ordinated
18 the government is slow to provide relief/ rescue workers
19 when soldiers come they do not seem to have a specific plan
Give 1 mark for each of these points reasonably clearly expressed, up to a maximum of 15
marks.
B: QUALITY OF WRITING
Use the following table to award a mark out of 5.
Band 1 5 All points are made clearly and concisely in the candidates own words. The
answer is strongly focused on the passages and on the question.
Band 2 4 Most of the answer is concise and well focused even if there is an
inappropriate introduction. Own words are used consistently.
Band 3 3 There are some examples of concision. There may be occasional loss of
focus. Own words are used.
Band 4 2 The answer is mostly focused but there may be examples of comment,
repetition or unnecessarily long explanation. There may be occasional lifting.
Band 5 1 The answer frequently loses focus and is wordy. There may be frequent
lifting.
0 Over-reliance on lifting; insufficient focus to be placed in Band 5.

SPECIMEN PAPER 3 : DIRECTED WRITING AND
COMPOSITION MARK SCHEME
Examiners should refer to the Instructions to Examiners handbook for general administrative
guidance.
NB : All Examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected approaches in
candidates scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant knowledge and skills
demonstrated.
Section 1: Directed Writing
Question 1
This question tests writing objectives W1-W5:
articulate experience and express what is thought, felt and imagined
order and present facts, ideas and opinions
understand and use a range of appropriate vocabulary
use language and register appropriate to audience and context
make accurate and effective use of paragraphs, grammatical structures, sentences, punctuation
and spelling
AND aspects of reading objectives R1-R3:
understand and collate explicit meanings
understand, explain and collate implicit meanings and attitudes
select, analyse and evaluate what is relevant to specific purposes
General notes on likely content
A case may be made for either school: Yousuf might respond well to the disciplined approach of
Allways or might thrive under less academic pressure at Wellbourne. However, between the lines of
the leaflets there lurk some questions and issues, which might be raised about both schools. (For
example, at Allways discipline seems to be the answer to many things, but is the regime too strict?
How bad might the results be at Wellbourne? What about the founders family's continued interest in
Allways: could it be a help or a hindrance? How does the candidate respond to words like charming,
blending with a wooded environment, hearts content, success through happiness and motivation
in the leaflet about Wellbourne? etc.) The more successfully such implications are detected and
engaged with, the higher the marks that will be gained.
Mark Scheme for Specimen Paper 3
The question is marked out of 15 for Writing and out of 10 for Reading. (Maximum mark 25)
Use the following table to give a mark out of 15 for Writing
Band 1 13-15 Excellent sense of audience; persuasive/authoritative style; very fit for
purpose; structured overall; firmly made arguments; accurate; uses
language assuredly.
Band 2 10-12 Demonstrates a secure sense of audience; quite stylish and fluent; sense of
overall structure; arguments occasionally well developed; writing is mainly
accurate, and overall language is very good.
Band 3 8-9 Consistently recognisable sense of audience; mostly written in accurate, if
fairly straightforward sentences; some arguments based on material are
apparent; mostly quite well structured; errors minor; language
straightforward but effective.
Band 4 5-7 Written in an appropriate if sometimes inconsistent style; sentences mainly
accurate; factual rather than argumentative; basic structure: has beginning,
middle and end; fairly frequent (minor) errors; language simple with
occasional attempts at persuasive effect.
Band 5 3-4 Functional expression; facts selected and occasionally listed; has a
beginning, but main part of letter is not always well sequenced; some
serious errors in grammar and use of vocabulary.
Band 6 1-2 Language and style not clear; some blurring and lack of order; despite some
serious errors, can mainly be followed.
0 Serious inaccuracies and problems with language and grammar are too
intrusive to gain a mark in Band 6.

fully taken.
Band 5 1-2 Parts of the answer are relevant, though material may be repeated
injudiciously.
0 Answer does not relate to question and/or too much unselective copying
directly from the material to gain a mark in Band 5.
Mark Scheme for Specimen Paper 3
Section 2: Composition
Questions 2(a), 2(b), 3(a), 3(b), 4(a) and 4(b)
Give two marks:
the first mark is out of 12 for style and accuracy: see Table A
the second mark is out of 13 for content and structure: see Table B (which has separate columns
for the different types of composition)
Remember that these marks will not necessarily match and one mark may well be (much) higher than
the other.
The maximum overall mark for the composition is 25. Write the total clearly at the end as
follows
(e.g.) C7 + S10 = 17 (C standing for 'Content', S standing for 'Style').
It is important that marking is not 'bunched': do not be reticent about awarding marks in the top and
bottom bands.
