Using this marking code will speed up your marking without compromising the quality and specificity of your marking because it transfers the time-consuming job of writing the targets out for each student from you to the students. Your marking will look something like this: WWW 1. 3. 7. EBI 4. 10. 15. Read the work and select 3 ways they have met the generic success criteria (WWW) and 3 ways they can improve further (EBI). The students have to then write out the target before trying to meet it. The 20 criteria start with the basics of using full stops and capital letters before moving on to much harder targets such as using a full range of punctuation. This should work with any creative writing task. Students can also use it a self-assessment tool. I have also included a differentiated and more visually stimulating version which just has 8 targets.
