The CCEA GCE A2 1 Nutrition and Food Science paper (ANF11) offers candidates a choice between Option A (Food Security and Sustainability) and Option B (Food Safety and Quality). Both pathways follow an identical assessment structure: a compulsory two-part Section A (25 marks) testing fundamental knowledge and farm-assurance mechanisms, followed by Section B where candidates select three 20-mark extended essay questions out of four. The assessment places heavy emphasis on Level-of-Response extended prose, high-level scientific and regulatory accuracy, and Quality of Written Communication (QWC).
