The writer includes all the points mentioned in the

timetable notes, but the tone is often too informal.
The opening of the report is unsuitable (it isnt a
formal letter). It should have a title. The
introduction does state the purpose of the report
but the writer should be careful not too lift too
many phrases direct from the input text.
It is a good idea to try and give each paragraph a
clear heading.

a, d and f are not appropriate as they are informal.

Check students know what structures follow the
appropriate phrases, e.g.
b Id like to suggest (that) you improve the
facilities.
c It might be a good idea to fly to Edinburgh.
It might be a good idea if you provided more
time for the visit.
e You could consider starting the trip later.
g One possible solution would be to shorten the
tour.
One possible solution would be flying back to
London the following day.
