3 January 2023
We are making changes to questions 1 and 2 in our 2023 CP3 exams.
This question will now be worth 80 marks (previously this was 90 marks).
We have reduced the marks available across the sections, including for communication content overall (5 marks) and for spelling and grammar.
This question will now be worth 20 marks (previously 10 marks), split over 3 to 6 question parts.
The themes of the question parts will be similar to previous papers. Some question parts may be more in-depth and have more marks allocated than previous exams.
We will be looking for a more comprehensive answer with students expected to generate more points given the additional marks.
As per the usual process, the examiners set the marking schedule according to the exam. They therefore reserve the right to change the mark allocation between different sections depending on the exam.
Please review the CP3 syllabus for 2023 exams on our communications practice page.
