Some pupils arrive at a new school after the year is already under way. Your school would like to form a student team to help these pupils settle in, and it wants volunteers with a range of personalities and strengths.
Write the text for a leaflet inviting students to become members of the new-pupil welcome team. Show readers what useful support they could offer, why quiet and thoughtful students may be well suited to the role, and how they can express an interest.
Your work will be assessed on communication and adaptation to audience and purpose (27 marks), and organisation and technical accuracy (18 marks).
