Set of resources for revision for GCSE English Language revision (AQA). These can be used independently, or worked through together as lesson practice. The workbooks contain various activities to make the students carefully consider the mark scheme and each question on the exam. I use these effectively in sessions by printing them into A5 workbooks, with students beginning with a “brain dump” and quiz for knowledge retrieval. Students then work through activities analysing model answers and redrafting answers applying their knowledge of the mark scheme. A copy of the brain dump is included at the back for them to make reference to. There are also two revision guides that complement these workbooks. They were designed for resit students aiming for a Grade 4/5 but are easily adaptable for different students.

Each session is designed for students to be able to work through independently, or in small groups.

It could be used for isolation and exclusion tasks, extra revision, class work, homework, for intervention groups, or for GCSE re-sit students. The tasks are aimed at enabling pupils to obtain a grade 5 or above. Skills from all six AQA Assessment Objectives of the English Language course are included, along with extracts from the mark scheme and starter tasks centered around improving the AO6 and grammar skills of the students. There are four GCSE practice papers included: Paper One - Dracula Paper One - The Red Room Paper Two - Bank Robberies Paper Two - Prisons Please check out my other resources.
