The Eduqas English Language GCSE provides the opportunity for flexible teaching
approaches, with a specification designed to be highly accessible, broad and interesting.
With a wide range of set texts, learners develop their ability to read critically, write
effectively and coherently, use grammar correctly and expand their vocabulary.
Assessment for GCSE English Language consists of two written examinations, within which spelling, punctuation and grammar make up 20%. Speaking skills are also assessed, but do not contribute to the overall grade.
We offer a wide range of English Language revision tools and digital resources for both learners and teachers, including GCSE English Language past papers, knowledge organisers, exam walk throughs and professional learning events. To learn more, view the menu above or download a copy of our English Language Resource Guide below.
