Again, entries rose compared to 2022 with approximately 61,000 students sitting this examination.  \nThis report gives feedback on Paper 2 (1BS0_ 02) 'Building a business' . It should be used by centres as a critical document to enhance both teacher and student understanding of the core skills that are under test in each type of question. Going forward, it should be used to fine-tune the approach taken by candidates in answering each style of question used within the examination.  \nPlease note, I have deliberately made this report lengthy (apologies to those centres that photocopy this report), so that students have access to worked examples that can be used in the classroom to support future student performance. Please do ensure that it is used in the classroom, since the purpose of this report is that should not be hidden away for the exclusive use of teachers.  \nEach question will have at least two worked exemplars which will highlight common mistakes and provide examples of high-scoring performance. Where appropriate, I have included'Examiner Tips' on how candidate performance could be improved in future years.  \nOnce again I did an extensive sample of student responses at the start of this series, and on this paper approximately 4% of candidates f","cbCailngMYBqY3wH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailngMYBqY3wH","pdf",5926575,1,70,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n## Exam administration and context\n## Purpose and recommended use of the report\n# Question-by-question feedback\n## Question 1 (c)\n## Question 1 (d)","[{\"question\":\"What paper and topic does the report focus on for GCSE Business 1BS0 02?\",\"answer\":\"The report provides feedback on Paper 2 (1BS0_02) “Building a business,” and is intended to support teacher and student understanding of the core skills tested in each question type.\"},{\"question\":\"What common mistake do students make regarding performance reviews?\",\"answer\":\"A frequent error is confusing performance reviews with customer reviews, which leads to candidates answering the wrong question and scoring zero marks.\"},{\"question\":\"How does examination technique affect performance on the “Evaluate…” question?\",\"answer\":\"About 4% of candidates left the 12-mark “Evaluate…” question blank, which the report links to poor technique, including over-answering on lower-mark questions and repeating the question’s root instead of developing an evaluation.\"}]","Examiners’ Report -
