Our support helps you understand the standard of Cambridge exams and prepare your students effectively. These materials are available under each subject in the programmes and qualifications area of our website and the School Support Hub.
Learner guides
Our Learner Guides introduce students to Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge O Level and Cambridge International AS & A Level courses. They also explain how they will be assessed. By the end of each guide, students will:
- have an overview of the course and what they will learn
- understand the structure of the assessment
- know how to show their skills to the best of their ability
- understand how to reflect on their own learning.
The Learner Guides also help students plan and monitor their revision as they;
- outline basic revision skills
- include example revision planners
- provide top revision techniques and checklists
Past papers and mark schemes
Past papers help your students become familiar with exam requirements and command words in questions. The mark schemes explain how to answer questions to meet assessment objectives.
Example candidate responses
These booklets use examples of candidates’ work to show how different levels of performance (high, middle and low) relate to the subject’s curriculum and assessment objectives.
They will help you understand the standard required to achieve marks, beyond the guidance of the mark scheme.
