MARK SCHEME \u2013 GCSE SPANISH \u2013 8698\/RH \u2013 JUNE 2023
2
Mark schemes are prepared by the Lead Assessment Writer and considered, together with the relevant
questions, by a panel of subject teachers. This mark scheme includes any amendments made at the
standardisation events which all associates participate in and is the scheme which was used by them in
this examination. The standardisation process ensures that the mark scheme covers the students\u2019
responses to questions and that every associate understands and applies it in the same correct way.
As preparation for standardisation each associate analyses a number of students\u2019 scripts. Alternative
answers not already covered by the mark scheme are discussed and legislated for. If, after the
standardisation process, associates encounter unusual answers which have not been raised they are
required to refer these to the Lead Examiner.
It must be stressed that a mark scheme is a working document, in many cases further developed and
expanded on the basis of students\u2019 reactions to a particular paper. Assumptions about future mark
schemes on the basis of one year\u2019s document should be avoided; whilst the guiding principles of
assessment remain constant, details will change, depending on the content of a particular examination
paper.

General principles of marking
Non-verbal answers
Follow the mark scheme as set out.
Verbal answers (English or target language)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. The basic principle of assessment is that students should gain credit for what they know, understand
    and can do; provided their written response communicates the required message without ambiguity, it
    will get the mark. The following guidance should be borne in mind when marking.
    (a) Credit should be given for all answers which convey the key idea required intelligibly and without
    ambiguity. This applies whether the answer is in English or target language. A separate
    assessment of spelling, punctuation and grammar is not required because of the nature of the
    answers. However, these aspects are an integral part of assessing communication and marks
    cannot be awarded where errors in spelling, punctuation or grammar lead to a failure to
    communicate the required information without ambiguity.
    (b) Where a student has given alternatives or additional information in an answer, the following criteria
    should be applied: \u2013 if the alternative\/addition does not contradict the key idea\/make it ambiguous,
    accept \u2013 if the alternative\/addition contradicts the key idea or makes it ambiguous, reject.
    (c) Where numbered lines are given within a question\/section of a question, credit should be given for
    correct answers, no matter which line they appear on.
    (d) Where a question has more than one section (eg (i) and (ii)), a candidate may include as part of the
    answer to one section the information required to answer another section. Eg, in Listening,
    information required to answer section (ii) might be given as part of the answer to section (i). In such
    cases, credit should be given for having answered section (ii), provided that no incorrect answer has
    been given for that section in the correct place on the question paper.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. In questions where students are asked to give for example a list of three items, only the first three
    items they write down should be considered for assessment purposes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. No mark scheme can cover all possible answers. When in doubt, look for the key idea.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Where a student has crossed out an answer and what was underneath remains legible then it should
    be marked. When part of an answer is crossed out, then only what remains should be considered.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. \u2026\/.. means that these are acceptable alternative answers in the mark scheme. (\u2026..) means that this
    information is not needed for full marks to be awarded.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. In questions which are T\/F\/? or \u221a\/X\/? in either Section A or Section B, a mix and match approach
    should be tolerated and credit given where it is clear and unambiguous (eg consistent use by the
    candidate). If candidates write \u2018True\u2019 instead of \u2018V\u2019 for Verdad in Section B, this should also be credited
    despite the wrong language being used.
