I found a copy of a report which looks like mine (from VASS). I was told that I should be aiming for the dark mustard line in the middle. Where as mine is in about the same position as the blue line is in this slide. "Shows school's assessment scale is more challenging than the State Scale". It has been suggested that this <u>might</u> be why I was put down for auditing this year.

In my opinion, as long as the task meets the requirements and the assessment is sufficient to discriminate (create a spread of marks in your class), then you can use a hard or easy marking scheme – it’s up to you.
