It focuses on the evaluation of learner scripts, specifically addressing the criteria for tense usage and spelling accuracy. The guide clarifies that learners are required to use appropriate tenses to fulfill task requirements rather than necessitating the inclusion of all tenses. Furthermore, it demonstrates a practical application of marking protocols through a sample case, showing how specific spelling errors result in point deductions while maintaining overall competency. This resource is designed to assist assessors in maintaining consistency and fairness in their evaluation processes, ensuring that the marking reflects the learner's actual capability to communicate effectively within the given tasks. By emphasizing contextual appropriateness over rigid grammatical structures, the guide empowers assessors to make informed decisions that support the development of essential English skills.",{"@graph":69,"@context":122},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":20,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/you-are-the-esol-assessor-entry-3-writing-form-marking-guidance/624006/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/you-are-the-esol-assessor-entry-3-writing-form-marking-guidance/624006.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Mafia Boss","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-04","2026-10-20",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":34},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108,114,118],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What is the policy regarding tenses in the Entry 3 Writing assessment?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"Learners are required to use appropriate tenses that make sense for the task; they are not required to demonstrate mastery of past, present, and future tenses simultaneously.","Answer",{"name":115,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":116},"How should spelling errors be handled during the marking process?",{"text":117,"@type":113},"Spelling errors should be penalized, as seen in the example where the learner dropped a mark for making two spelling errors.",{"name":119,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":120},"What was the final score for the sample learner mentioned?",{"text":121,"@type":113},"The sample learner achieved six out of seven total marks.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":124,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":126,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":128,"site_id":62},624006,1792699936,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":131},{"doc_id":128,"user_id":132,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":19,"category_name":20,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":34,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":19,"language":139,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":140,"faqs":141,"seo_title":142,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":143,"read_time":52},962090760730,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_9964176cb1d06d4a9deccf72a44ae3dc","You Are The ESOL Assessor | Entry 3 Writing | Form  \nChris Briggs  \nProduct Manager Post 16 English, Maths and Digital Skills  \nYou Are The ESOL Assessor | Entry 3 Writing | Form  \nSkills that power potential | Pearson ESOL Skills  \nYou Are The ESOL Assessor | Entry 3 Writing | Form  \nMarking The Script  \nThe first thing to note here is a comment by the assessor atthe bottom of the completed form, stating the learner should lose a mark for not using the past tense.

So, in this example, although part tense could be used to explain why they like the store, it isn't essential. Assessors should just mark the tenses used.  \nIn terms of marking, the learner has made 2 spelling errors, so they would drop that mark.
