The provided map compare the layout of the buildings and facilities at school site in 2016 and 2020.

Overall, with the number of students surging from 600 to 1000 from 2016 to 2020, there were more buildings and facilities constructed and some of the original building was moved for a better design.

The most obvious one is that one more building was constructed to accommodate the increased number of students, which was located to the right of Building 1. Besides, a new car park was also added to the site, which could be found in the eastern part of the campus, which was the original location of playground.

The playground was relocated to the south of the school and redesigned into a rectangular shape, roughly twice the size of the original. What’s also worth mentioning is that two paths were built to the school, which were used to connect the two buildings and two car parks respectively, allowing the students and cars to move around conveniently and safely.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by highlighting the key changes between the two years, such as the increase in student population, the addition of a new building and car park, and the relocation of the playground. The overview is clear and provides a good summary of the main trends. To improve, ensure more precise use of grammatical structures (e.g., 'The provided map compares' instead of 'compare') and refine the description of spatial relationships to ensure absolute clarity. Overall, the response is well-organized and covers all essential information.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized, moving from a general overview to specific details regarding buildings, car parks, and the playground. The use of cohesive devices such as 'Overall', 'Besides', and 'What's also worth mentioning' helps guide the reader. However, there is some repetitive use of relative clauses (e.g., using 'which' multiple times in a single sentence), which can slightly disrupt the flow. To improve, try to vary your sentence structures and use more diverse linking words to connect ideas more smoothly.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate for the task, with good attempts at using descriptive language such as 'surging', 'accommodate', 'relocated', and 'redesigned'. There is a clear attempt to use directional language (e.g., 'to the right of', 'eastern part', 'south of'). To reach a higher band, aim for more sophisticated collocations and avoid minor errors in noun-number agreement (e.g., 'original building was moved' should be 'original buildings were moved' if referring to multiple, or 'the original building was moved' if singular).

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a mix of simple and complex sentence structures. However, there are several grammatical inaccuracies that prevent a higher score. For instance, 'The provided map compare' should be 'compares' (subject-verb agreement), and 'at school site' should be 'at the school site'. There are also issues with article usage and singular/plural consistency. Focus on mastering subject-verb agreement and the correct use of definite/indefinite articles to improve accuracy.
