Sound familiar?

The past papers are running out, and the real one is in May

You have done every past paper twice

The score goes up, the understanding does not. You remember the answers, not the method.

The school mock was a paper you had already seen

So the mock grade says nothing about what happens when the questions are new.

Revision feels random

Which topics? Which question types? There are 90 of them and the exam is on a fixed day.

Three papers, three dates

The same shape as the real ones.

Marks log

Every lost mark, by topic, so the last week goes on the right things.

One set, for your board and tier. Example layout, not the real pages.

  • Three full papers

    Paper 1 (non-calculator), Paper 2 and Paper 3: 80 marks and 1 hour 30 each, in your exam board’s own layout, for your tier.

  • A full mark scheme for each

    Method marks and accuracy marks shown line by line, so you can mark yourself the way the examiner would.

  • Worked solutions

    Every question done in full, with the line where most students lose the mark.

  • The topic list, and why

    One page per paper: the topics we chose, how often they have appeared since 2017 and what the examiners’ reports said about them.

  • A marks log for all three

    One page to record every mark you lost, by topic, so the week before the exam is spent on the right things.

  • Grade boundaries to mark against

    Indicative boundaries from the last three series, so a score means a grade, not just a number.

What the marking looks like

Every question in the solutions is marked the way the examiner marks it: a mark for each step of method, a mark for the answer in the form asked for, and the line where most students lose it.

  • M1A method mark: the step is written down, even if the number is wrong.
  • A1An accuracy mark: the right value, in the form the question asked for.
  • ✗Where it goes wrong, and the one habit that stops it.
Paper 2 · Question 143 marks

A phone costs £540 after a 20% increase. Work out the price before the increase.

120% = £540M1
540 ÷ 1.2M1
£450A1
Most students take 20% off £540 and write £432. The examiners flagged this in the 2025 report. 0 marks.

The question everyone asks

Can’t I just use AI? Why would I need this?

It writes a question, not a paper

A real paper is 80 marks balanced across the topic weightings, climbing from 2-mark starters to 5 and 6-mark problems, with the marks allocated the way the board allocates them. Ask for a paper and you get a list of questions.

It does not know how the examiner marks

Method marks, accuracy marks, follow-through, “or equivalent”: the mark scheme is a language. AI gives you the answer. The scheme tells you what you would have scored.

It cannot tell you where you lost the mark

Our solutions mark the exact line where most students go wrong, taken from the examiners’ reports. That is the line that moves your grade.

Experienced teachers prepared this for you

A group of qualified, experienced maths teachers wrote every paper, mark scheme and solution: people who mark papers like these every year and know exactly where Year 11s lose marks. AI has never marked a paper.

For you if

  • You are sitting GCSE maths in May or June 2027 with Edexcel or AQA
  • You have used up the past papers and want fresh ones that feel like the real thing
  • You want to practise marking yourself, not just answering
  • You are a parent who wants timed papers happening at home, not notes being re-read

Not for you if

  • You sit OCR, WJEC or an international GCSE: the layouts differ. Email us and we will tell you when yours is ready
  • You want the real 2027 questions. Nobody has them, and anyone selling them is a scam
  • You have not covered the course yet. Do the Examiner’s Eye Workbook first, then the papers

Questions before you buy

Are these the real 2027 papers?

No. Nobody has them, and Ofqual warns that anyone selling “this year’s paper” is almost always a scam. These are original papers written by qualified maths teachers to match the layout, timing and topic balance of the real exam, with the topics weighted by past-paper trends and the examiners’ reports.

How accurate are predicted papers?

Honestly: topics match far more often than questions. Our papers follow the published topic weightings (Higher, for example, is 27 to 33% algebra) and the question types the examiners have flagged. After each real paper we publish which of our topics came up, so you can judge us on the record.

Which exam boards and tiers?

Pearson Edexcel (1MA1) and AQA (8300), Foundation and Higher. Each set is written to that board’s own paper style and mark scheme conventions. OCR and WJEC are not covered yet.

When do I get the papers?

All three papers, the mark schemes and the solutions arrive by email within a minute of paying, with a link that keeps working on any device.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. Email us within 30 days and we refund the £15, and you keep the papers. Because the papers are delivered instantly, the 14-day right to cancel a digital purchase ends at delivery, which you agree to at checkout. The 30-day promise is the one to use.

Can a school or tutor use them?

One purchase is for one student. Schools and tutors: email us for a class licence.

Do I need the Examiner’s Eye Workbook as well?

They do different jobs. The workbook teaches the 25 question types where marks go, one chapter a night. The papers are the dress rehearsal. Most students do the workbook from now and the papers from March.
