Marking Strategies for A-Level Computer Science

1. Programming Work
- Use a 3-band rubric: Correctness, Style, Documentation.
- Mark with line comments + general summary.
- Apply test cases for automated checking.

2. Theory Questions
- Use point-based marking tied to command words (define, explain, analyse).
- Highlight where marks are earned directly on scripts.

3. NEA Coursework
- Use milestone marking: Proposal, Design, Implementation, Testing, Evaluation.
- Provide coded feedback but avoid over-guidance.

4. Weekly Assessments
- Use short quizzes (10–15 marks).
- Return within 1 week with annotations.

5. Revision Marking
- Use exam-board style levels of response.
- Apply strict timing and realistic conditions.
