This is an essay example that a Y10 GCSE student completed whilst studying ‘An Inspector Calls’, it was not written in timed conditions. He was not used to writing essays and this was one of his first attempts, it came out very well! There are examiner’s marks and comments below - it received an L6 / B grade overall.
I wrote this essay during a poetry lesson with a student who is taking the CIE / Cambridge IGCSE exam. It wasn’t written under timed conditions so the middle paragraphs are slightly longer than you’d ideally aim for in your own, but I tried to include all of the main important ideas that you’d need for a high A or A* (L7/L8/L9) grade at GCSE — including analysis of form, structure and language, a clear layout, a central argument and understanding deeper meanings and alternative interpretations. Enjoy!
