Writing Assessment Criteria

As promised on Wednesday, here is an explanation of the CAE writing assessment criteria which I will use to mark your final exam writing task.

Content (5 marks): task fulfillment, relevance, development of ideas

Communicative Achievement (5 marks): appropriate and consistent register (formal/neutral/informal), style (e.g. academic, journalistic), clear/effective communication of ideas, text function (e.g. persuade, recommend, give opinions, inform)

Organisation (5 marks): layout/format (e.g. title, subheadings, introduction, conclusion), paragraphing, logical order of information, linking devices/cohesion

Language (5 marks): range and accuracy of grammar and vocabulary
