The themed scenario is designed to help candidates at Entry 1, 2 and 3, and not as a tool for penalising them. Though there may be a theme to help candidates through the tasks, each task, when marked, is free-standing. Candidates are assessed (in Text focus) on whether or not they have completed the stated task in the rubric. They are not penalised for failing to link any task to any other.
