,MARKING INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARATION FOR MARKING
RM ASSESSOR
Make sure that you have accessed and completed the relevant training packages for on-screen marking: RM Assessor Assessor Online
Training; OCR Essential Guide to Marking.
Make sure that you have read and understood the mark scheme and the question paper for this unit.
Log-in to RM Assessor and mark the required number of practice responses (“scripts”) and the number of required standardisation
responses.
YOU MUST MARK 10 PRACTICE AND 10 STANDARDISATION RESPONSES BEFORE YOU CAN BE APPROVED TO MARK LIVE
SCRIPTS.
MARKING
Mark strictly to the mark scheme.
Marks awarded must relate directly to the marking criteria.
The schedule of dates is very important. It is essential that you meet the RM Assessor 50% and 100% (traditional 40% Batch 1 and 100%
Batch 2) deadlines. If you experience problems, you must contact your Team Leader (Supervisor) without delay.
If you are in any doubt about applying the mark scheme, consult your Team Leader by telephone or the RM Assessor messaging system, or by
email.
Crossed Out Responses
Where a candidate has crossed out a response and provided a clear alternative then the crossed out response is not marked. Where no
alternative response has been provided, examiners may give candidates the benefit of the doubt and mark the crossed out response where
legible.

, Rubric Error Responses – Optional Questions
Where candidates have a choice of question across a whole paper or a whole section and have provided more answers than required, then all
responses are marked and the highest mark allowable within the rubric is given. Enter a mark for each question answered into RM assessor,
which will select the highest mark from those awarded. (The underlying assumption is that the candidate has penalised themselves by
attempting more questions than necessary in the time allowed.)
Contradictory Responses
When a candidate provides contradictory responses, then no mark should be awarded, even if one of the answers is correct. This applies to
short answer/ low tariff questions only.
Short Answer Questions (requiring only a list by way of a response, usually worth only one mark per response)
Where candidates are required to provide a set number of short answer responses then only the set number of responses should be marked.
The response space should be marked from left to right on each line and then line by line until the required number of responses have been
considered. The remaining responses should not then be marked. Examiners will have to apply judgement as to whether a ‘second response’
on a line is a development of the ‘first response’, rather than a separate, discrete response. (The underlying assumption is that the candidate is
attempting to hedge their bets and therefore getting undue benefit rather than engaging with the question and giving the most relevant/correct
responses.)
Short Answer Questions (requiring a more developed response, worth two or more marks)
If the candidates are required to provide a description of, say, three items or factors and four items or factors are provided, then mark on a
similar basis – that is downwards (as it is unlikely in this situation that a candidate will provide more than one response in each section of the
response space.)
Longer Answer Questions (requiring a developed response)
Where candidates have provided two (or more) responses to a medium or high tariff question which only required a single (developed)
response and not crossed out the first response, then only the first response should be marked. Examiners will need to apply professional
judgement as to whether the second (or a subsequent) response is a ‘new start’ or simply a poorly expressed continuation of the first response.
Always check the pages (and additional objects if present) at the end of the response in case any answers have been continued there. If the
candidate has continued an answer there, then add a tick to confirm that the work has been seen.
