Practice Papers for GCSE (9–1) Edexcel English Language Paper 1

I like the fact that it includes exam-style papers with example answers and commentaries to use alongside these

C Harvey, KS4 Coordinator & Peer Reviewer

Perfect for mock exams!

Give your students the support they need to prepare for the 2015 GCSE (9–1) exams. Three full practice papers for Paper 1 that mirror the Edexcel exams exactly.

Ensures students are familiar with the format, are ready to answer each question type and gain complete practice across the AOs.

  • Carefully chosen extracts from a range of engaging fiction texts including A Study in Scarlet and Treasure Island
  • Full student-friendly mark schemes matched to the Edexcel exams – ideal for quick marking or self-assessment
  • PLUS! Sample answers, marking activities and detailed examiner’s commentaries for every question – help students understand marking, improve their answers, and achieve top grades!

What do teachers say about this resource? (8473)

Good... I like how there's lots of sample answers at different marks being awarded to show students how much detail they need to include... Would benefit students and teachers.

N Patel, Teacher, Tutor & Peer Reviewer

A very useful resource which would save a lot of time at this early stage of the new specification... I like the fact that it includes exam-style papers with example answers and commentaries to use alongside these... Good for using either as timed practice or for developing teaching and learning ideas with the extracts as the starting point. The sample answers will also help students see what they need to aim for
