task achievement
The essay shows an attempt at answering the question, but it does not fully address all parts of the task. The introduction needs to present a clearer thesis statement that shows your position on the extent of the government's responsibility. In your main body paragraphs and conclusion, make sure to address the question 'To what extent do you agree or disagree?' more explicitly.
coherence cohesion
The coherence of the essay is impacted by grammatical errors and awkward phrasing, which can confuse the reader. To improve, focus on sentence structure and the use of linking words to better connect your ideas. The essay would benefit from a clearer overall structure with distinct introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. Each paragraph should have a clear main idea supported by examples or further explanation.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
