Discussion question · 10 marks
Select a challenging student response from your recent classroom practice that you marked as a borderline grade. Present this response to the group, explain your final grading decision using the official KNEC mark scheme, and discuss how your feedback strategy would differ if you were aiming to help this student move from their current mark band to the next level of achievement. How does this exercise influence your overall approach to fair and consistent assessment?
