Top band, student written model answer for A Level English Language. Evaluate the idea that children’s linguistic development is the result of an innate capacity to learn language.
This essay demonstrates how to convey understanding of linguistic ideas by evaluating and challenging the views presented in the question and by other linguists. The model answer shows how to approach an essay question requiring data analysis and application of theory. Students of all abilities will benefit from an example of effective essay writing which they can emulate in their own work.
Why it works:
- Shows how to select, arrange & argue the most important ideas in essays
- Demonstrates how to balance data analysis with theory application
- Produced by a student who achieved an A* in 2017
- Can be reworked as a template for your future (brilliant!) essays

REVIEW on the bundle: A great set of resources in an area of study that is limited for materials. I particularly like the model CLD lesson and essay about Jess. If you have any more materials like this such as good CLD model essays and questions I’d certainly be interested. Thanks for your hard work and excellent value! - EnglishThings

This is such a useful resource. Saved me loads of time. It is a well structured response with the exact mark given for each AO listed clearly at the bottom. It leaves plenty of opportunity for discussion with my students and allows them to see the importance of engaging with the data in front of them and THEN using theorists/theories to enhance their ideas rather than just knowledge dropping learned ideas. If you're after more A level English Language resources, there are others provided by astarlevels. Wish I'd discovered this sooner.
