Excelling.
AO1 Selects, organises and deploys a range of accurate knowledge effectively in order to support their analyses and arguments. AO2 Clear understanding of second-order concept in question (e.g. causes/consequences; use of criteria to assess the extent of change or continuity/ similarity or difference). AO3 Analyses strengths and limitations of a source to assess its utility, considering content and some provenance (nature, origin or purpose). AO4 Explains why an interpretation gives a certain view considering two of: nature, origin or purpose. Can explain why two views differ. |

Securing.
AO1 Selects and deploys a range of accurate knowledge to support their explanations and arguments AO2 Some understanding of second-order concept in question (e.g. causes/consequences; use of criteria to assess the extent of change or continuity/ similarity or difference). AO3 Identifies strengths and/or limitations of a source to assess its utility, considering content and/or provenance (nature, origin or purpose). AO4 Gives reason(s) why an interpretation gives a certain view considering one of: nature, origin or purpose. May suggest why two views differ |
|
Developing.
AO1 Deploys some accurate knowledge in an attempt to construct an explanation. AO2 Limited understanding of second-order concept in question (e.g. causes/consequences; use of criteria to assess the extent of change or continuity/ similarity or difference). AO3 Identifies some strengths and/or limitations of a source. AO4 Gives a reason why an interpretation gives a certain view with limited explanation. May suggest why two views differ. |
|
Emerging.
AO1 Uses some accurate knowledge in their answers. AO2 Beginning to suggest causes/consequences, or beginning to recognise some similarities and differences. AO3 Identifies a strength and/or limitation of a source. AO4 Attempts to give a reason why an interpretation gives a certain view without explanation. May suggest why two views differ. |
