Assignment 1: Schools should choose a piece with strong views (topical news/newspaper article etc.) for students to be able to review/discuss/argue with. Students need to comment upon, and evaluate, the ideas and opinions presented to them. They should offer their personal view, but this must not become a rant and distract from the focus on the ideas within the article.
Assignment 2: The focus for this assignment is writing to describe. Many centres allow a choice of topics for this assignment to reflect the interests of their learners. Questions from past examination papers should not be used for coursework.
Assignment 3: The focus for this assignment is narrative writing. Writing may arise from an in-class activity (such as studying mystery stories). Questions from past examination papers should not be used for coursework.
Please refer to the Coursework Handbook which can be found on the School Support Hub for more information on Component 3. This will support you fully in your setting and marking of the tasks.
