,General Marking Guidance
All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners must mark the
first candidate in exactly the same way as theymark the last.
Mark schemes should be applied positively. Candidates mustbe rewarded
for what they have shown they can do rather than penalised for omissions.
Examiners should mark according to the mark scheme not accordingto their
perception of where the grade boundaries may lie.
There is no ceiling on achievement. All marks on the markscheme should
be used appropriately.
All the marks on the mark scheme are designed to be awarded. Examiners
should always award full marks if deserved, i.e. if the answer matches the
mark scheme. Examiners should also be prepared to award zero marks if
the candidate’s response is not worthy of credit according tothe mark
scheme.
Where some judgement is required, mark schemes will provide the principles by
which marks will be awarded and exemplification may be limited.
When examiners are in doubt regarding the application of the mark scheme to
a candidate’s response, the team leader must be consulted.
Crossed out work should be marked UNLESS the candidate has replaced it
with an alternative response.
