Learn as you go through Year 12
2027 Practice Packs are designed to support your learning from the start of your Year 12 course. Follow the topics you’re learning at school, work through the examples and practise at your own pace. You don’t need to finish the whole course before you start. Use the solutions and review guidance to understand mistakes, then return to mixed revision and course checks as you cover more topics.
Six twelve-question workshops with six extra worked examples, a six-question initial check, six-question mixed revision, six-question follow-up check and a review sheet. Short analysis, editing, research, analytical commentary and sustained essay planning develop precise language reasoning.
