This final lesson consolidates everything you have learned and equips you with the skills to perform at your best in the exam. It covers assessment objectives, grade descriptors, essay structure, and common pitfalls — with model paragraphs and practical advice.
The mark scheme is built around Assessment Objectives (AOs). Understanding these tells you exactly what the examiner is looking for.
| AO | What it assesses | Weighting |
|---|---|---|
| AO1 | Read, understand, and respond to texts; use textual references | Moderate |
| AO2 | Analyse the language, form, and structure used by a writer | Highest weighting |
| AO3 | Show understanding of the relationship between texts and their contexts | Moderate |
| AO4 | Use a range of vocabulary and sentence structures for clarity; accurate spelling and punctuation | Some marks (where applicable) |
Examiner's tip: AO2 carries the most marks. This means the examiner wants to see you analyse how Orwell writes — his language choices, structural decisions, use of form — not just what happens in the story.
