The bar chart compares the percentages of people living in urban and rural in a region of the UK who can reach for services within a 15 minutes drive.

Overall, people in urban areas have better access to most services than those in rural areas. The biggest difference is in access to primary school, while access to doctors and secondary school is almost the same in both areas.

Looking at the details, around 100% of both urban and rural residents can reach a doctor within 15 minutes. Similarly, almost all people in both areas have access to secondary schools. For post offices, the figure is about 100% in urban areas, compared with approximately 95% in rural areas. The largest gap can be seen in primary schools. Nearly all urban residents can reach a primary school, whereas only about 65% of people living in rural areas can do so. Overall, access to services is generally high despite some differences between the 2 groups.

Task Response

The report addresses the task and provides an overview, but there are significant inaccuracies in the data reporting that contradict the provided visual description. For example, the report claims access to secondary schools is almost the same in both areas, whereas the data shows a large disparity (100% vs 60%). Similarly, it misidentifies the largest gap as being in primary schools rather than secondary schools. To improve, ensure that the trends and specific figures identified in the overview and body paragraphs align accurately with the data presented in the chart.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is logically organized with a clear introduction, overview, and body paragraphs. The progression of ideas is easy to follow. To improve, ensure that the overview does not repeat information that is later detailed in the body paragraphs, and try to use a wider variety of cohesive devices to link sentences more smoothly rather than relying on simple transitions like 'Similarly' or 'Looking at the details'.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary used is appropriate for the task and accurately conveys the information. However, there is some repetition of basic terms (e.g., 'reach', 'access', 'people'). To reach a higher band, aim to use more sophisticated synonyms and varied collocations, such as 'proximity to amenities', 'accessibility to essential services', or 'residents residing in...'. Pay attention to vocabulary repetition to improve the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of structures, including comparative forms. There are some minor errors in phrasing, such as 'living in urban and rural' (which should be 'urban and rural areas') and 'reach for services' (where 'reach services' or 'access services' would be more natural). Increasing the complexity of sentence structures and ensuring precise prepositional use will help improve the overall accuracy.
