Question 184

Your school library is reviewing how its quiet study room should be used. The headteacher has invited students to comment before new arrangements are introduced.

Write a letter to the headteacher giving your views and proposing practical rules for the room.

You may wish to consider:

  • when silence is most important
  • where paired or group discussion could take place
  • how fair access to the room should be managed.

Your work will be assessed on communication and adaptation to audience and purpose (27 marks), and organisation and technical accuracy (18 marks).
