Unit 2 model answer - small data questions

Please take a look at the following Video I have put together for how you go about picking up the marks for 4 - 12 mark responses. I will shortly be creating ones for 30 marks and Units 1, 3 and 4. Will try to do something about the text size on new ones; in the meantime paper copies of the model answers have been distributed via AS lessons and are available to resit students.
