      The truth is actual marking has not started yet. On the first day, all makers have to undergo a marking exercise. Eg in composition, during the marking exercise, teachers will know whether they are too strict or too lenient and will have to adjust accordingly, before marking starts after lunch.

      Amazing !! :salute: I thot u r one of the making teacher :roll: πŸ˜‚

        How does the 2 teachers marking system work ?

        Good for the kids if the second teacher find ways to add marks.
        But will be bad if the 2nd teachers deduct marks given by the first.

          There is an answer booklet which gives the different possible answers to each question, especially for Science and EL paper 2, as well as how to award marks for incomplete answers. Kind of hard for teachers to award extra because a tick is given against each correct point. The only one possible in being lenient is composition. The whole marking process is actually very fair. In fact for composition, the 2nd marker has absolutely no idea what marks the first marker has given, because he/she will put down the marks on a separate piece of paper (with students’ index no. on it) which is given to a checker. After the 2nd marker has marked, the checker will check for disparity and collate the marks.

                  A number of primary schools will be marking centers during these four days. In each marking centre, there are teachers from a few zones n they are split into 2 big groups, say group A n B. Group A teachers will then mark the scripts of students who come from group B schools, n vice versa.

                  Hi MummySTay,

                        Hopefully, our kids get markers who add marks then... :xedfingers:
