Report Plan:

• Paraphrase paragraph: charts>pie charts; show>illustrate; proportion>percentages; holidaymakers>people on holiday.  State the 4 types of accommodation, give the years.
• Overview/summary paragraph: (1) the largest % of holidaymakers stayed with family or friends (2) a rise in the % of those renting holiday apartments
• Paragraph 3:  select, report and compare data for those staying with family or friends and those staying in hotels
• Paragraph 4:  select, report and contrast percentages/trends for holiday apartments and camping

Essay Plan:

• Introduction:  refer to the task statement.  My opinion:  students with mixed abilities should study together.
• Paragraph 2:  arguments FOR choosing students based on academic ability – (1) students in classes of the same ability progress faster (2)  there is less disruption in class when lessons match the level and skills of students
• Paragraph 3:  arguments AGAINST – (1) selecting the most academically skilled means the majority of students are considered to be ‘failures’  (2) in mixed ability schools/classes students learn to cooperate and work as a team – a preparation for real life (eg at work, voluntary organising)
• Conclusion:  my opinion re-stated: selection in schools is a selection of most students to fail.  This is unfair.
