3 Introduction The purpose of this pack is to provide teachers and students with some examples of responses to GCSE German. The sample assessment materials which these responses are based on can be found on the Pearson website. In this pack, you will find a small sample of responses, an examiner commentary and the mark scheme for each question. The responses are all from students and we have retained their original responses where possible. We will add to these exemplar packs throughout the year.

20 Candidate A question 3(b): Pearson Education Ltd

21 Examiner comment: This is an unusual answer since the candidate has not fully addressed the bullet points. It is imperative that students address all bullet points in their answer. However, the quality of language throughout is worthy of a mark of 6. Grid 1 (communication and content): 3 marks Grid 2 (linguistic knowledge and accuracy): 6 marks Pearson Education Ltd

22 Candidate B question 3(b): Examiner comment: The candidate attempts and develops the second bullet point and writes a good response in answer to the third and fourth bullet points.
