Additional guidance
Apply a generous interpretation to their attempt to shade
The shading for the boys needs to be darker than the shading for the girls (the part of the bar for the girls can be left unshaded)
Accept label(s) of ‘boys’ and/or ‘girls’ instead of shading
Ignore any numbers on bars, eg labelled 9 and 9
