Where can I find more information on how particular annotations are used in the marking of scripts?

We do not publish fixed definitions of our annotations for a number of important reasons. As each individual Question Paper is different, the precise application of the marking criteria is agreed among examiners at each examiner standardisation meeting. The annotations are used to enable our teams of standardised examiners to consistently and succinctly document the process through which they have awarded marks and to communicate this to their supervisors. Consequently, the meaning of each annotation is both nuanced and highly contextualised, so does not permit simple definition.
