Pupils needing extra support: Might need reminding to sketch lightly instead of pressing too hard too early. They should avoid using rulers as this only makes it more difficult.

 

Pupils working at greater depth: Should be encouraged to produce more complex drawings with greater detail and accuracy, possibly including shading and hinting at the surrounding area.
