2 © UCLES 2009 0843/01/M/J/09 Science mark schemes – Achievement Test Guidelines for marking test papers These mark schemes are designed to provide you with all the information \ necessary to mark the Primary Achievement Tests. As far as possible, the mark schemes giv\ e you full guidance regarding acceptable and unacceptable alternative answers and, where app\ ropriate, include examples of student work to illustrate the marking points. Howe\ ver, it is not always possible to predict all the alternative answers that may be produced by \ students and there could be places where the marker will have to use their professional jud\ gement. In these cases it is essential that such judgement be applied consistently. The guidelines below should be followed throughout ( unless the mark scheme states otherwise ): • A correct answer should always be awarded full marks even if the working\ shown is wrong. • Where more than one mark is available for a question the mark scheme exp\ lains where each mark should be awarded. In some cases marks are available fo\ r demonstration of the correct method even if the final answer is incorrec\ t. The method marks can be awarded if the correct method is used but a mistake has bee\ n made in the calculation, resulting in a wrong answer. Method marks can also be \ awarded if the calculation is set up and performed correctly but incorrect values h\ ave been used, e.g. due to misreading the question or a mistake earlier in a seri\ es of calculations. • If a question uses the answer to a previous question or part question th\ at the student got wrong, all available marks can be awarded for the latter question if\ appropriate calculations are performed correctly using the value carried forward. P\ laces where such consideration should be made are indicated in the mark schemes. In\ these cases, it is not possible to provide all the alternative acceptable answ\ ers and the marker must follow the student’s working to determine whether credit \ should be given or not. • Half marks should not be awarded and at no point should an answer be awa\ rded more than the maximum number of marks available, regardless of the quali\ ty of the answer. Similarly, negative marks should never be awarded. • If the student has given more than one answer or has supplied additional\ redundant information the marks can be awarded if all the answers given are correc\ t and non- contradictory (even if some are irrelevant). However, if any incorrec\ t answers/information are given the marks should not be awarded, similarly\ if additional information contradicts the first answer the marks should not be awarded\ (marks for correct working out can still be gained). • If the answer line is blank but the correct answer is given elsewhere, e\ .g. an annotation on a graph or at the end of the working out, the marks can be\ awarded provided it is clear that the student has understood the requirements of\ the question. • If the student has produced redundant additional working after the corre\ ct answer has been reached the marks can be awarded provided the extra work does n\ ot contradict that already done.

3 © UCLES 2009 0843/01/M/J/09 [Turn over • Each question and part question should be considered independently and m\ arks for one question should not be disallowed if they are contradicted by workin\ g or answers in another question or part question. • Any legible crossed-out work that has not been replaced can be marked; b\ ut if work has been replaced the crossed-out part should be ignored. • Diagrams, symbols or words are acceptable for explanations or responses.\ • Where students are required to indicate the correct answer in a specific\ way, e.g. by underlining or ticking boxes, marks should be awarded for any unambiguou\ s indication, e.g. circling, crossing boxes etc. • Any part of speech is acceptable, e.g. refraction, refracting, refracted\ , and singular and plural forms are acceptable unless otherwise stated, e.g. alveolus, \ alveoli. • Spelling errors should not be penalised where the meaning is clear. In \ the case of specific scientific vocabulary, misspellings should only be accepted if \ the student’s response is phonetically equivalent to the correct answer. For questions involving quantities, e.g. length, mass, time or money, co\ rrect units must be given in the answer. The table shows acceptable and unacceptable versio\ ns of the answer 1.85m. Correct answer Also accept Do not accept Units are not given on answer line and the question does not specify a unit 1.85m Correct conversions provided that the unit is stated, e.g. 1m 85cm 185cm 1850mm 0.00185km 1.85 185m If the unit is given on the answer line, e.g. ……………m …..1.85…… m Correct conversions, provided the unit is stated unambiguously, e.g. …..185cm….. m …..185……m …..1850.… m etc. If the question states the unit that the answer should be given in, e.g. “Give your answer in metres” 1.85m 1.85 1m 85cm 185; 1850 Any conversions to other units. Note: if the answer line is left blank but the correct answer is given e\ lsewhere on the page it can be marked correct if the units match those on the answer line or are\ unambiguously stated. Each question on the test paper has a box beside it for the teacher to r\ ecord the mark

The page to\ tal boxes can be used to aid addition. It should also be noted that marking in red ink and using the mark boxes\ is an essential requirement for the Achievement tests.
