Writing for an audience
English · Writing Composition · meta
Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development and organisation are appropriate to the task, purpose, and audience, maintaining a consistent style and structure throughout
What mastery looks like
- Identify the task, purpose, and audience before writing and make deliberate choices about structure, tone, and vocabulary to suit them
- Organise ideas logically so that the writing flows from introduction through development to conclusion, with each section serving a clear purpose
- Review a draft to check that the organisation, style, and level of formality are consistent and appropriate for the intended reader

When Writing for an audience writes for school, does the piece feel well-organised and appropriate for its purpose — whether it's a formal essay, a creative story, or a persuasive argument — with a consistent tone throughout?
