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.

Mark Schemes for GCSE Religious Studies
This paper requires expert markers who have wide knowledge and understanding of the particular
subject content of the Specification. With the exception of the multiple-choice question, many of the
questions asked have many different creditable answers and students are able to bring to their answers
their own knowledge, understanding and background. They will offer details, arguments and evidence
which the examiner, with the help of the mark scheme, will need to judge as creditable or not. It is
therefore important that the examiner has a good understanding of the principles and spirit of the mark
scheme in order to be fair and consistent when marking students\u2019 answers. The Content included is
designed to be as helpful as possible but in many cases is not exhaustive. So Content sections are
introduced by the sentence:
Students may include some of the following points, but all other relevant points must be credited:
this is to remind examiners that there may well be additional correct answers which, with their expertise,
they will be able to allow. With all questions if examiners have any doubt about answers being credit
worthy they should consult their team leader.
