| When | Change | Evidence | Session |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-21 | Developing → Developing | paper #10 Q4: 1/2, loss=technique — 'sneer of cold command' lines understood as cruelty; 'to other kings he looks kind' unsupported | session 126 |
| 2026-10-16 | Developing → Developing | 16 Oct retrieval, cold after 21 days: pedestal inscription 'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings./Look on my works, ye mighty and dispair' - words and line break right in 2 min; lower-case Mighty and 'dispair', retyped despair right after the mark. Counted correct for recall. | session 113 |
| 2026-10-14 | Developing → Developing | paper #9 Q10: 1/2 and Q11: 0/8 not attempted — 'skip' typed on the 8-mark Ozymandias paragraph with 15 min unused; the unseen-poem structure question earned 1 | session 105 |
| 2026-10-01 | Developing → Developing | 'Ozymandias' spelled correctly cold in the starter, 1/1 (Ozimandias on 29 Sep). No quotation from the poem tested today. | session 62 |
| 2026-09-29 | Developing → Developing | 'Ozimandias' cold in the starter (was correct 22 Sep, 'Ozymanidas' 24 Sep); correct on retype. No quotation from the poem tested today. | session 57 |
| 2026-09-22 | Developing → Developing | Starter: inscription exact with colon and exclamation mark, no notes, fourth clean session; 'Ozymandias' spelled correctly. No new unaided paragraph. | session 39 |
| 2026-09-21 | Developing → Developing | Inscription exact with punctuation in the starter (third clean session) and exact inside draft 2 of the comparison paragraph. Irony angle stated in her own words ('the whole poem is about how his control crumpled'). No unaided Level 4 paragraph; comparison was supported. | session 35 |
| 2026-09-17 | Developing → Developing | Starter 2/2 unaided with punctuation this time. No new Ozymandias paragraph; comparison not reached, so still no second unaided Level 4 instance. | session 30 |
| 2026-09-16 | Developing → Developing | Starter 2/2 unaided: 'look on my works, ye mighty and despair' and 'nothing beside remains' (wording exact; capitals/punctuation not tested). Closing sentence and 1818/King George context clause both written unaided, first attempt. Run one of two clean quotation runs. | session 28 |
| 2026-09-15 | Developing → Developing | Both pending items closed: closing sentence unaided ('Shelley wants the reader to think that power will crumble over time'); 1818/George III context built as a subordinate clause by her after a 'who...' shape hint. Paragraph from session 18 now complete. No new full paragraph attempted, so no second unaided Level 4 instance yet. | session 25 |
| 2026-09-11 | Secure → Developing | audit: session 18 promotion to secure rests on one unaided Level 4 paragraph; the bar requires two, on different tasks, in different sessions — session 8 reached Level 4 with prompting, session 12 reached no full paragraph at Level 4. Reverted to developing pending a second unaided instance, ideally on the comparison poem. | standalone |
| 2026-09-11 | Developing → Secure | All five aspects covered: irony, sand as time, sonnet form as mockery, traveller framing, 1818 context (identified George III unprompted after one nudge). Final paragraph unaided: 'Shelley reduces the entire empire to a single phrase, "Nothing beside remains", to show that lots of time has passed'. Level 4 — clear, explained response, effective use of references, clear understanding of context. | session 18 |
| 2026-09-08 | Developing → Developing | Sonnet form recognised (counted 14 lines) and read as ironic use of a love form to mock a tyrant, with prompting. Traveller framing worked out largely unaided: 'the king wanted to be seen for all his might, but only one person has seen him in this poem'. Final line unpacked as emptiness and burial after two hints. | session 12 |
| 2026-09-07 | Not started → Developing | Ozymandias: identified the irony between 'Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!' and 'Nothing beside remains', and read sand as a symbol of time. Paragraph reached Level 4 descriptor — 'clear, explained response to task, effective use of references' — with prompting to place boast against ruin. | session 8 |
