You need 15 SRPS, this is vital. It should work out from about a page to a page and a half. Quality over Quantity

Definitely 15 SRPs. Wherever possible, give examples and a diagram. 1 example = 1 SRP. 1 diagram = 1 SRP. Even, any figure or definition = 1 SRP. If you're still unsure of exactly what information they'll count as an SRP, just look back over the markings of your Mock. You'll probably be surprised at what they do and don't give them for.

Diagrams can be up to worth 6 SRPs always depending on the marking scheme

Diagrams can be worth up to 6 marks* depending on the marking scheme!
