Context in English lit

With AQA GCSE English literature, I seem to be always stuck at level 5 (5 marks) for context. I can't seem to find any responses that have full marks confirmed by the exam board, and was wondering what the difference between the level 5 and level 6 for context is? If anyone could explain or has any example answers with full marks in context, I would be really greatful :smile:

Hey!! Could you send an example of one of your context points?
I got a 9 at GCSE and predicted A* for A-Level so would love to help! Also what texts are you doing? I might have some high context

Hi!

The texts I do are A Christmas Carol, An Inspector Calls, Macbeth and the Power And conflict poetry anthology.

If it helps for you to know what I was talking about in my most recent mock about A Christmas Carol, I explored the hungry Forties, the set in stone views of the upper class, the distance between the classes, industrial revolution and the impact of the Bible on society.

Thanks :smile:
