Amended marking scheme for Functional Skills in ICT Entry Level 3

In the ‘Set Y’ marking scheme for Functional Skills in ICT Entry Level 3 (09875), we’ve amended the text to reflect the wording on page 21 of the ‘Set Y – Educational Trip’ assessment task.

On page 27 of the marking scheme, for the skill standard E3.6.1, we’ve changed the following:

• ‘The map has been inserted, as instructed in the email’ is now ‘additional information has been inserted, as instructed in the email’.

To confirm, it’s not a requirement for students to insert a ‘map’ in the email when they complete this part of the ‘Set Y Educational Trip’ task  – a ‘map’ is just an example of what they could insert as ‘additional information’.

You can view and download the amended Set Y Live Assessment Materials for Functional Skills in ICT from the Legacy Functional Skills > Assessment Materials > Legacy Functional Skills: Entry Level Assessment Materials page on Interchange.

The Set Y assessment materials are for use between 1 October 2022 to September 2023 only.
