General Marking Guidance
All candidates must receive the same treatment. Examiners

must mark the first candidate in exactly the same way as they
mark the last.
Mark schemes should be applied positively. Candidates must be

rewarded for what they have shown they can do rather than
penalised for omissions.
Examiners should mark according to the mark scheme not

according to their perception of where the grade boundaries
may lie.
There is no ceiling on achievement. All marks on the mark

scheme 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 candidates response is
not worthy of credit according to the 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 candidates response, the team leader must
be consulted.
Crossed out work should be marked UNLESS the candidate has

replaced it with an alternative response.
