Writing a report:

What is a Report?
 A report is a concise piece of writing that uses facts and evidence to look at issues,
situations, events or findings. Reports are informative texts that aim to analyse
different topics with a specific purpose and audience in mind.

Reports are a form of non-fiction and aim to be as objective as possible, focusing

on facts. This differentiates them from other forms of non-fiction, such as essays,
that are heavily opinionated (though they may use statistics and factual information
to persuade).

How to Structure a Report

Reports are usually structured using subheadings, numbered sections and
subsections.Key information can be listed using bullet points and it can include
features such as statistics, graphs or quotes as evidence to support its analysis.

Reports also tend to follow a structure that progresses through the following
sections:

• Introduction. State what the report is investigating, as well as its aims and
objectives. Also, identify what your hypothesis is (a theory that you’re trying to
prove).

• Methodology. Write about how you approached the investigation, collected data and
analysed it. For example, if you got your data through a survey you conducted, write
about how many people you surveyed, where you found them, how they
communicated with you and what you did with the information. You could have gone
about this in more than one way, in which case you can use subtitles to break down
the different methods you used.

• Results. What were your findings? This isn’t the part where you interpret or analyse
what you found, you simply share the results of your investigation. Continuing with
the above example, what did the survey participants say?

• Discussion. This is where you interpret the results. What insights do you have into
the information you collected. Did it support your hypothesis that you wrote earlier?

• Summary. Without introducing any new information, summarise your findings and
what you learned from the investigation. You can also include recommendations
here that relate to your findings.

This is commonly referred to as the IMRAD report structure (Introduction,

Methodology, Results and Discussion) and is the common way to approach report
writing. However, if you’re unsure, check the required format with your teacher,
professor, mentor, manager etc.

What Language Should You Use When Writing a Report?

Clear, objective language. Report writing should not include emotive words and
should focus primarily on being clear, accurate and concise. This is because the
goal of a report is to communicate the facts, as opposed to convincing readers to
think or feel a certain way. Aim to use Standard English and a straightforward
vocabulary.
