Comments

This question tested the candidate's knowledge of the Indian labourer's reluctance to join the
Christian churches in the 1900s.

Statement on overall quality

The quantity of this answer was very weak and so it was awarded a low score.

Knowledge and Comprehension

The candidate displayed a very limited knowledge base. Lacking in solid information the candidate could not
produce the level of understanding and appreciation required in an acceptable response.

Use of Knowledge

The candidate failed to explore definite issues and situations and as a result the quality of the interpretation
suffered. The response lacked depth indicating inadequate preparation and a low level award was a more than
appropriate description of the candidate's answer.

Enquiry and Communication

The candidate did not come to terms with the Indian's inclination to be socially exclusive, the power of his
native language, the all embracing nature of his religion and the extent to which all of these were protected by
a colonial administration wary of a new system of enslavement. The candidate brought a very limited range
of information to the examination and made poor use of it so that the answer could not possibly earn a high
grade.
