Written Paper - How can I best prepare my students for the written papers?

The Examiner Reports on the School Support Hub are an important resource to support you with preparing you students for the written papers. When used alongside the question papers from the same year, these reports can give valuable guidance on how examiners expect questions to be answered. The best way to prepare candidates is to make sure they are confident with working with briefs and that they understand the details they need to include in their responses to the questions. 

For examinations from 2028, you should refer to the updated specimen assessment materials available on the School Support Hub. The specimen papers will help your students become familiar with exam requirements and command words in questions. The specimen mark schemes show how students should answer questions to meet the assessment objectives.
