Additionally, try answering a written maths question without English. 😁

I'd argue that it shows you can apply a learnt formula to a maths problem. English means you have to have to have a large vocabulary, a good indicator of learning, and the ability to think logically, abstractly, outside the box and lots of other ways. That's why it's harder to get a 9 in English.

As a Leicester supporter, I expect a larger rollercoaster and breaks in the rails. 😁

Download past papers and examiners reports. AQA also do training for language papers. TES resources, Teachit, Twinkle, Litdrive, go to an AI generator like chat GPT or Gemini Ai and ask it to give you a list of websites that offer free gcse language resources. Hope this helps.

As Don Moyer illustrated in the HBR, we spend a lot of time and money in developing people's expertise over the length of a career — and then lose it all when they leave because of no system in which it is passed on.
