Key Stage 3 Reading and Writing marking sheets (Student Friendly)

These sheets are aimed at Years 7-9 but also keep the demands of the AQA GCSE English Literature and Language mark schemes in mind.

They are colour coded with visual prompts to help students understand strengths and improvements required in their answers. The reading sheet works well for feedback on an essay/extended answer whilst the writing is intended for creative pieces.

They have also kept in mind the need for reducing the marking workload for teachers, so whilst there is space for a brief comment, the majority of the sheet allows teachers to tick off relevant comments for student work.
