We have copies of the foundation paper but can get hold of the higher as we didnt do it in 2006. I cant seem to find the edexcel website . Can anyone help? many Thanks K

On the rubric of the muliple choice modular paper it states that "mark only one answer for each question. If you change your mind about an answer, rub out the first mark completly, then mark your new answer." This sounds foolproof but I have experience of large numbers of students sitting the...

Does anyone have the grade boundaries for the specimen papers? My year 10 are doing both exams on March 3rd and we have just done a mock. I would like to let the pupils know what grade they achieved in the mock. Also the height question on stage 2 could have said give your answer in metric units!

We have used the mock papers that Edexcel provided. We felt the papers were very difficult and the results from the pupils supported this. Our A*-C % based on these results are down a lot and this is even with lowering the higher boundaries from 42 to 33 and from 42 to 38 respectively. I feel that an...

Given this is the first year of the new 2-tier entry, I'm wondering whether to enter my 'safe' grade C students for higher or foundation. Can anyone offer any advice?

Suggested grade boundaries for the mock papers are the same as those for the specimen papers and are shown below. Please remember that grade boundaries are set by examiners by looking at many scripts of students and with a lot of statistical data available to help them make judgements; we have had none...
