    MARK SCHEME for the May/June 2015 series

    0680 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT


    0680/13 Paper 1, maximum raw mark 60

    This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and candidates, to indicate the requirements of
    the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not
    indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began,
    which would have considered the acceptability of alternative answers.

    Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner
    Report for Teachers.

    Cambridge will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes.

    Cambridge is publishing the mark schemes for the May/June 2015 series for most
    Cambridge IGCSE®, Cambridge International A and AS Level components and some
    Cambridge O Level components.
