Cyberschool
A local IT company is gathering views about
Cyberschooling for research purposes.
Cyberschooling is a way of learning that
involves pupils working at home on their own
computers and watching lessons on the
internet. The company has asked for pupils’
views, to be presented as a short report
showing whether they support or oppose the
idea.
Level 6
Pupils' writing often engages and sustains the
reader's interest, showing some adaptation of
style and register to different forms, including
using an impersonal style where appropriate.
Pupils use a range of sentence structures and
varied vocabulary to create effects.
Spelling is generally accurate, including that of
irregular words.
Handwriting is neat and legible. A range of
punctuation is usually used correctly to clarify
meaning, and ideas are organised into
paragraphs.
