AQA GCSE Spoken Language practice papers

The AQA English Language GCSE consists of two papers worth 50% each, both with a time-limit of one hour and 45 minutes. Paper 1 focuses on fiction, usually an extract from a novel or short story, and tests students' reading and creative-writing skills. Paper 2 asks students to summarise and compare two texts, one from the 19th century and another from the present day, and to produce some viewpoint writing. All texts used are unseen, which means students will likely not have encountered them before. There is also a compulsory speaking and listening component which is unweighted and internally assessed.

EdPlace’s GCSE exam-style questions and practice papers help your child hone their exam-technique and prepare them for anything the exam may throw at them.
