The programme in your pocket
A local arts venue is considering whether to stop printing its programme and make it available online only. It asked 120 young visitors how they use event programmes.

|---|---|
| Prefer a printed programme | 55% |

| Have no preference | 15% |

Write an article for a culture magazine aimed at teenagers giving your views on whether the venue should stop printing its programme. Use the survey information to support your views and consider how much it can tell the venue.
Your response will be assessed for communication and organisation, and for vocabulary, sentence structures, spelling and punctuation. The total includes 16 marks for vocabulary, sentence structures, spelling and punctuation.
