GCSE English Language AQA Practice Papers: for the 2025 and 2026 exams (CGP AQA GCSE English Language)

Ideal examples for GCSE examination preparation.

Helpful test papers.

It's really helpful to have example exams to use. This pack contains two Paper One exams and two Paper Two exams. The mark scheme is comprehensive and clear. I'm not entirely sure that all the questions fit with the real exams, and I'm not sure how they've predicted the grade boundaries, but they're close enough to be useful. The only frustrating thing is that the source texts for Paper One and Paper Two are printed on the same sheet. Can't see why they couldn't separate them. Overall, I'm pleased.

Perfect help for my child

My son said these are good to practice writing skills but marking is difficult so not sure how good they are to get a real achievement level

Good quality good price

Great resource for revision; the answers booklet is comprehensive and clear as would be expected from CGP. I would agree with other reviewers who said that it would work better if someone reviews the answers and gives objective feedback as it's quite hard to judge your own work and how it's perceived. I don't know how well these papers reflect the actual GCSE grades because my son is still more than a year away from the exams but I hope it's fairly close despite the fact that the grading has changed.
