Assessment

Each component equals 50% of the total marks for the Full GCSE Course. Component 1 will be examined in one paper of 1 hour 45 minutes. Component 2 will be examined in one paper, also of 1 hour 45 minutes. We expect all pupils to complete the Full Course. There is no coursework. Each question on the examination paper is divided into five parts, 1 to 5, and should be completed by the pupil in 26 minutes plus extra time, if required. This course will be assessed by external examination at the end of Year 10.
