Criteria Feedback

- The student uses a sensible mix of secondary data, comparison areas, and primary survey evidence.
- The student's topic stays recognisable throughout the investigation and remains tied to the station-development question.
- The student's method would be stronger if they defined the study area more precisely.
- The student does not fully justify why the chosen comparison areas are valid controls.
- The explanation of how the different sources work together is still too general.
