Key learning points
- Analysing model answers allows us to explore how we might frame ideas and how to avoid misconceptions.
- To effectively analyse quotations, we need to explain how we have reached our conclusions.
- An effective conclusion summarises the argument and gestures to what it might say about society.
- A personal response may reflect on how the meaning of the poem relates to the reader and wider society.
