The pie chart illustrates the primary factors responsible for poor school attendance in the UK, based on a data from recent survey.

Overall, the most significant cause of poor attendance is having both parents working, whereas upbringing accounts for the smallest proportion. Additionally, school discipline and social factors like peers pressure and bullying also contribute noticeably to the total figures.

In terms of specific breakdowns, having both parents working constitutes the single largest contributor, responsible for 40% of truancy issues. The second most prevalent reason is a lack of discipline within schools, which makes up a precise quarter (25%) of the total figure. Meanwhile, peer pressure and bullying exert an identical influence, each accounting for 15% and together comprising nearly a third (30%) of all reported cases. By contrast, issues regarding upbringing represent the least significant category, contributing a mere 5% to the overall total.

Task Response

The report effectively addresses the task by providing a clear overview and detailed breakdown of the main causes of poor school attendance. It correctly identifies the most and least significant factors and makes relevant comparisons, such as noting the equal contribution of peer pressure and bullying. The data is accurately reported, and the structure is logical with a clear overall summary followed by specific details. Minor lapses include a slight grammatical error ('a data') and a minor omission of explicitly stating the survey context, but these do not detract from the overall clarity and completeness. To improve, ensure grammatical precision and consider adding a brief mention of the survey's scope or date if available. The report falls short of the required 150 words.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report is well-organized and easy to follow. The introduction clearly states the purpose, the overview highlights the main trends, and the body provides a detailed breakdown. The use of cohesive devices such as 'Overall', 'In terms of specific breakdowns', 'Meanwhile', and 'By contrast' effectively links ideas. Paragraphing is logical, though the body could be split into two paragraphs for even better clarity. Overall, the message flows effortlessly with minimal lapses.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is varied and appropriate for the task. Words like 'illustrates', 'primary factors', 'constitutes', 'prevalent', 'exert an identical influence', and 'contributing a mere 5%' demonstrate a good range of lexical items. The phrasing is generally natural and precise. A few minor improvements could be made, such as using 'a recent survey' instead of 'a data from recent survey' and 'peer pressure' instead of 'peers pressure'. Overall, the lexical resource is strong and shows flexibility.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

The report demonstrates a good range of grammatical structures, including complex sentences and appropriate use of passive voice. Punctuation is generally correct. There are a few minor errors, such as 'a data' (should be 'data' or 'a piece of data') and 'peers pressure' (should be 'peer pressure'), but these do not impede understanding. The overall accuracy is high, and the structures are used with control. Minor refinements would elevate the grammar to a band 9 level.
