1 Functional Skills Mathematics Level sample assessment Marking scheme Sample paper January 01 Version 1.0

2 Functional Skills Mathematics Guidance notes for Sample Paper Mark Schemes Level 1 and Level Notes: The mark scheme has been carefully constructed to avoid penalising candidates repeatedly for similar errors: 1) Principle of follow through applies throughout unless otherwise stated. This allows the candidates to gain credit for subsequent correct calculation based on a previous incorrect answer. ) Units or numbers shown in brackets on the mark scheme are not required for the awarding of mark/s on the candidate s paper. However, if a candidate states units they must be correct: eg 4(cm) means accept 4cm or 4 but not 4m eg ( )7.(0) means accept 7.0 or 7. or 7.0 or 7. ) URT means unrounded, rounded or truncated; the underlining defines the acceptable limit of approximation: eg URT (U is the unrounded version) the following are acceptable: 860 (T) or 861 (R) (T) or (R) or (T) or (R) or (R) or (U) but not eg 900.

5 Step step A step B step C step D step E step F step G Total Functional Mathematics Level : Marks Marks awarded for 7(%) x 100 seen 1 1 decision consistent with their A and valid reason eg yes the training was successful because more customers gave scores no available for pie charts or tables of 8 or more all four ranges correct, speed of service, attitude, appearance, product knowledge 8 one range correct 1 one pair of maximum and minimum value seen ie and 8 (speed of service) or 7 and 10 (attitude) or and or (appearance) or 1 and 9 (product knowledge) Chosen average circled with all four corresponding average scores correct mean median mode Speed of service Attitude Appearance.8 4 Product knowledge. 4 three consistent average scores correct one average score correct partial method for finding median and mode eg ordering of numbers or totals 18 and 166 and 76 and 49 for one mean 1 0 or 14 seen 1 bar chart showing four averages for items in the survey ignore range if bars added this mark not available for line graph 1 suitable vertical axis label and horizontal axis/bar labels allow mark for line graph labels 1 continuous vertical scale starting at (implied) zero allow mark for line graph scale all bar heights correct follow through from D 1 one bar height correct or allow for line graph if all plots are correct training session chosen supported by a valid reason using their average AND a valid reason using their range eg appearance because it has a low average and a small range (showing everyone would benefit from training) 1 training session chosen supported by a valid reason using their average or a valid reason using their range eg product knowledge because it has the lowest average do not accept product knowledge because it has the highest range unless qualified to indicate outlier a complete check of any correct answer or any interim stage of provided that calculations or workings have been shown, eg a reverse calculation or a calculation using approximate values but not a straight repeat of the original calculation 1 a complete check of a CORRECT answer or value without sight of an original calculation or a straight repeat of the original calculation Total for 0 Functional Skills Mathematics Level assessment Sample paper
