• Candidates should be allowed up to 2 hours to complete the task.
• The data files Advert and the 4 image files provided by the Gateway Qualifications must be available to all candidates, e.g. visible as an icon on the desktop.
• The computer system must be switched off in order that candidates can switch it on at the hardware on/off switch.
• Candidates must use a password to access their user area.
• Email must be used during this task.
• The assessor must prepare this email message and send it to candidates at the start of the assessment. Content of email
During the Task the assessor:
• may read the task to learners.
• may respond to questions to explain difficult words.
• must not give solutions to any part of the task.
The assessor will be required to formally observe learners as part of the
assessment process for parts of this paper.
Note: printouts need not be in colour.
Candidate work should be saved and retained electronically as part of the

To Finish: Assessors must use the mark scheme to mark the task and record the
result on the Candidate Record form.
Working safely
The assessor must ensure that safe working practice occurs during the assessment.
Candidates must make sure that they are sitting comfortably, and the workstation
environment is free from hazards. The assessor may provide health and safety
support and assistance during the assessment.
Adapting the task
The task has been designed in a way that enables centres to adapt it to meet local
needs. This means that centres may adapt the context of a task. For example
centres may change the stimulus material, names and type of events but not the
purpose or audience of a task. Where centres adapt a task they must use the mark
scheme provided by Gateway Qualifications
