 Examinations appeals board - Malvern Girls' College AQA 2002 GCE AS level Philosophy 5171   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The College asserted that the effect of the very narrow mark bands was exacerbated by the allowance of a marking tolerance of +/-3 marks and further exaggerated by the effect of UMS conversion.
The College had asked for statistical information about different cohorts and their performance at the AQA stage 2 appeal but had not received it after the AQA appeal or for the EAB appeal hearing.
While accepting AQA’s willingness to arrange for an examiner to visit the College once the appeal was closed, the panel considered that the teachers might have been better able to understand the marks awarded had they been given more information on the performance of their candidates during the AQA appeals process.

It is for this reason that in the nineteenth century, the “Switzerland of the Caribbean” was used mainly as a health resort, as wealthy European planters and landowners welcomed the change from the hot swampy mosquito infested areas in the Black River Morass.
Nowadays, Malvern is best known to Jamaicans as the home of three important and historic Jamaican schools, Munro College for boys, Hampton College for girls, and the Bethlehem Teacher's College.
While its climate once made it popular, today Malvern is best known to generations of Munro and Hampton alumni as the place where many memorable coming-of-age moments and schoolmate bonding experiences took place.

Lewis writes, "If the school had not died, and if I had been left there two years more, it would probably have sealed my fate as a scholar for good." Ironically, it was there he began to pray and read his Bible.
After the school closed, Lewis entered Malvern Cherbourg School in England and later Malvern College.
Kirkpatrick saw strong potential in Lewis and informed Albert Lewis that his son could be a writer or a scholar "but you'll not make anything else of him." Realizing Kirkpatrick's assessment was true, Lewis applied for and received a scholarship to University College, the oldest of the Oxford colleges.
