(ii) 1 any one from*traffic pollution or air 'pollution' is insufficientpollution

*passive smoking*faulty gas fires or faulty gasheaters

Introduction

The test papers will be marked by external markers. The markers will follow the mark

scheme in this booklet, which is provided here to inform teachers.

This booklet includes the mark scheme for paper 1 and paper 2 in both tiers.

The structure of the mark scheme for tiers 3–6 and 5–7

The mark scheme for each question shows:

■ the teaching points from the key stage 3 programme of study;

■ the marks available for each part of the question;

■ the total marks available for the question;

■ the answer or answers expected, indicated by an asterisk;

■ acceptable alternatives to the given answer;

■ additional guidance to assist markers in making professional judgements.

When a question appears in an identical form in both tiers, the answers to the question

are given only once in the mark scheme. For clarity, both question numbers are given.

The following example, from tier 3–6 paper 1 question 12 and from tier 5–7 paper 1

question 2, illustrates this.

Where more than one answer is acceptable, this is indicated in the mark scheme by

‘any one from’. Each possible correct answer is marked with an asterisk. In some cases,

alternative answers are indicated by ‘or’.

2003 KS3 Science Mark Scheme Tiers 3–6 and 5–7 Introduction

In the following example from part (b) of tier 3–6 paper 2 question 8, an answer giving

‘water’ and ‘minerals’ will be awarded two marks. However, an answer which gives

‘minerals’ and ‘nitrates’ will be given only one mark, as both points are correct

answers for the same mark.

In the ‘Accept’ column there may be:

■ examples of answers which are acceptable, although they do not correspond exactly

to the expected answers;

■ some examples of higher level answers, which could be given by higher attaining

pupils answering questions on the lower levels in the tier.

In the ‘Additional guidance’ column there may be:

■ examples of answers which are not acceptable;

Part Mark Answer Accept Additional guidance

(b) 2 any two from*oxygen*water*minerals or nutrients accept a named mineral such

as 'nitrate'accept two named mineralssuch as 'nitrates' and'phosphates' for two marks

Part Mark Answer Accept Additional guidance

(b) 1 any one from the answer must include* how many seeds accept 'which seeds grow at both a dependent and an

germinated at different different temperatures?' independent variabletemperatures?

* how many seeds grew or award one mark forstarted to grow at different identifying temperature astemperatures? the independent variable

*how long does it take seeds accept 'how does and either the number ofto grow or germinate at temperature affect seeds germinating or thedifferent temperatures? germination?' time taken to germinate as

accept 'which is the best the dependent variabletemperature for seeds to grow?'

accept statements which are do not accept a conclusionnot framed as questions such such as 'more seeds grew atas 'the number of seeds higher temperatures'germinating at different do not accept 'how long doestemperatures' it take for lettuce seeds to

germinate?' as there is noreference to temperature

In the following example, from part (b) of tier 3–6 paper 1 question 2, the statement in

bold type in the ‘Additional guidance’ column is given in order to indicate the general

requirements of that part of the question.

2003 KS3 Science Mark Scheme Tiers 3–6 and 5–7 Introduction

■ a reminder, in questions involving calculations, that consequential marking may

be used;

■ instructions on action in the event of consequential marking (see below);

■ guidance to markers where pupils have not followed the instructions on the question.

Marking

The number of marks available for each part of a question and the maximum number

of marks for the question as a whole are shown on the test paper. Every part of a

question which has been attempted by a pupil will be marked and an indication given

where every mark has been awarded. Half marks will not be given in any question.

The total number of marks awarded for all the parts of questions on a double page will

be written in the box at the bottom of the right-hand page. This is the only number that

markers will write on a pair of facing pages. In many instances, this will be the sum

of marks awarded for two questions. The total number of marks obtained on the paper

will be recorded on the front of the test paper.

The total number of marks available is 180 in tier 3–6 and 150 in tier 5–7.

Using professional judgement in marking

The instructions given in the mark scheme will enable the markers to decide whether

pupils have correctly answered a particular question. However, there will be instances

where an answer given by a pupil does not correspond to any of the possible responses

shown in the mark scheme. In such cases, markers will apply their professional

judgement to decide if credit should be given. They will consider whether the response:

■ is equivalent to those listed;

■ conveys the ideas underlying the question as outlined in the statement in the

‘Additional guidance’ column in the mark scheme, if one is given.

If any doubt persists, markers will consult with their supervisors for guidance.

Marking misspellings of words

If a pupil misspells a word, markers will apply the following procedures:

■ if it is clear that the pupil has made a simple error, eg ‘tow’ for ‘two’ or ‘Son’ for

‘Sun’, then the incorrect spelling will be accepted and the mark awarded;

■ if a pupil misspells a word copied from the text of the question or from a selection

given, and the new word does not have any inappropriate meaning, the incorrect

spelling will be accepted and the mark awarded;

■ if specific scientific vocabulary is required in the answer, a creditworthy misspelling

must be a phonetic equivalent of the required word, with the major syllables of the

correct word represented in the answer.

2003 KS3 Science Mark Scheme Tiers 3–6 and 5–7 Introduction

Marking lists of alternative answers

In some instances, pupils give more than one answer to a single question. If any of the

answers given is incorrect, the mark will not be awarded, irrespective of the order in

which the answers are given. In some cases, a correct answer is given alongside other

answers which, while correct, would be insufficient for the mark. In these cases, the

mark will be given for the correct answer.

Marking questions containing calculations

Some questions require pupils to perform calculations. Where two marks are available,

they are advised to show their working. Pupils who do not show their working but give

the correct answer will be awarded full marks.

The result of one calculation may be required in order to carry out further calculations.

In such instances:

■ the term 'consequential marking' appears in the ‘Additional guidance’ column;

■ a pupil's result for the first calculation is treated as the starting point for the

second;

■ the pupil is awarded full credit for the second calculation if it is carried out

correctly, even if the result of the first calculation was wrong.

Marking answers given in the wrong place

In some cases, pupils may write correct answers in the wrong part of the question.

Markers will use professional judgement to decide whether a pupil has correctly

understood the question and simply written the answer in the wrong place. Similarly, if

pupils identify an answer by a cross or other indication when a tick is required, they will

be given credit for their responses.

Awarding levels

The sum of the marks gained on both papers determines the level awarded. A copy of

the level threshold tables which show the mark ranges for the award of different levels

will be sent to each school by QCA in July 2003.

Schools will be notified of pupils’ results by means of a marksheet, which will be

returned to schools by the External Marking Agency with the pupils’ marked scripts.

The marksheet will include pupils’ scores on the test papers and the levels awarded.

The 2003 key stage 3 science tests and mark schemes were developed by the

University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate and the Centre for Research

into Primary Science and Technology (CRIPSAT) on behalf of QCA.
