2.1.1 Visual Text, Narrative and Diverse Identity
Use detailed visual-text evidence to discuss content, narrative, character, theme and diverse identities.
How to use this English-interface Cymraeg guide
Read the strategy in English, then return to the Welsh source: quote and analyse its exact wording and produce every assessed response in accurate Cymraeg.
Core concepts
Concept 1
Specific scenes, narrative development, character relationships and thematic evidence
Exam cue: Confirm the current WJEC route, unit, task and assessment control before choosing a reading, writing or speaking strategy.
Concept 2
Local or wider Welsh social, cultural and historical contexts
Exam cue: Refer to an exact scene or exchange, explain its contribution to identity and connect it to the current WJEC question.
Concept 3
How characters, conflicts and themes construct diverse identities
Exam cue: Use the English guidance to plan the skill, but cite, analyse and produce the assessed response in accurate Welsh.
Risk pitfalls and guardrails
Describing the visual text generally without scene evidence or a clear connection to identity.
Guardrail: Confirm whether the text is a Unit 1 option, a centre-selected Unit 2 or Unit 3 text, or one of the three compulsory Unit 6 stories.
Answering the assessed task in English or translating away the Welsh wording, quotation, register, grammar or literary effect being assessed.
Guardrail: Do not translate away the assessed Welsh, bind optional texts universally or combine mutually exclusive award routes.
Binding every learner to an optional centre-selected text, poem or stimulus, or combining Single and Double Award units into one route.
Guardrail: Use Units 1-3 plus 4a for Single or Units 1-3 plus 4b, 5 and 6 for Double; never add weights or tasks across routes.
