English A exam practice: Analyse headlines, captions, and layout in Paper 1

A short story scene set during a school assembly uses a headline, caption, image order, and short blocks of text. Choose the focus that best explains how layout guides meaning. Choose the analytical focus, evidence choice, and technique choice, then select the interpretation that best explains meaning, comparison, or audience effect.

Worked practice: build the analysis

Construct the analysis one move at a time, the way an examiner reads it: focus, evidence, technique, then effect.
