How GCSEs are graded, the dates that matter, the exam boards and planning the final months.

Chapter 01

How GCSEs are graded

GCSEs in England are regulated by Ofqual and set by exam boards. Most subjects are linear, which means they are assessed by exams at the end of Year 11 rather than by coursework along the way. Each subject is graded 9 to 1, with 9 the highest.

A 4 is a standard pass and a 5 a strong pass. Sixth forms and colleges often ask for grades 4 or above in English and Maths, and higher grades in the subjects a student wants to take at A level.

Grades

A 5
Combined Science

Chapter 02

Key dates in the GCSE years

The school year in England runs from September to July in three terms, each with a half term. Each school sets its own mock dates and coursework deadlines, so ask for them early in Year 11. Exam boards publish the summer timetable.

Year 9

Chapter 03

The exam boards

Each school chooses a board for each subject. The DfE sets the core content, so the boards cover the same ground, but papers, question styles and set texts differ. Ask which board and specification your child sits in every subject, and practise with that board’s past papers.

AQA
English Language 8700, Maths 8300 and most subjects
Pearson Edexcel
Maths 1MA1, plus English, sciences and humanities
OCR
Maths J560, and the Gateway and Twenty First Century sciences
WJEC Eduqas
English, sciences and humanities in England
Chapter 04

When to start and the final months

Year 10 is the calmest time to fix gaps, before mocks and revision crowd the calendar. Weekly lessons work best when they follow class topics: secure this week’s work, then go back to one weak spot. Starting in Year 11 still helps, but more time goes on exam technique than on rebuilding foundations.

After mocks, the focus shifts to past papers, sat under timed conditions and marked against the board’s mark schemes. Examiners’ reports show where students commonly lose marks, which makes them a useful guide to what to practise next.

Year 10
Content, one topic at a time
Before mocks
Topic revision and practice questions
After mocks
Timed past papers every week
Final weeks
Weak topics, short sessions, plenty of sleep
Chapter 05

How Tutero works

Your child keeps the same tutor every week, and lessons start from their own school work and exam board. Lessons are 1-to-1, with one tutor per subject, and you receive a written report after every lesson, so you always know what was covered and what comes next.

GCSEs, step by step

What GCSE students work on at each stage, and how a tutor helps.

Get matched with a tutor

Year 9

Students finish Key Stage 3 and choose their GCSE options. English, Maths and science are studied by almost everyone.

Year 9

  • Choosing GCSE options
  • Algebra foundations
  • Analysing a text
  • Study habits
Sample topic sentence

The writer presents Scrooge as cold at first, so that his change at the end feels earned rather than sudden.

How a tutor helps

Tries real GCSE questions with your child, so option choices are made on evidence.

Based on the DfE National Curriculum in England: Key Stage 3 programmes of study.

Year 10

GCSE courses begin. Most subjects are assessed by exams at the end of Year 11, so Year 10 is where the content is built.

Year 10

  • Quadratics and graphs
  • Set texts
  • Science required practicals
  • Topic tests
Worked example

Factorise and solve x2 − 5x + 6 = 0.

Answerx = 2 or x = 3

How a tutor helps

Builds the algebra and writing skills that Year 11 papers assume.

Based on the DfE GCSE mathematics subject content.

Year 11

The final GCSE year. Students finish the content, sit mock exams and move to full past papers.

Year 11

  • Finishing the specification
  • Comparing poems
  • Language analysis
  • Weekly revision
Sample paragraph opener

The writer shortens the sentences as the footsteps get closer, so the reader's pace quickens with the character's fear.

How a tutor helps

Keeps each subject on track week by week, so mocks and revision never pile up.

Based on the DfE GCSE English language subject content.

Mock exams

Schools set their own mocks, often in the winter of Year 11. Mock results guide revision and many schools use them for predicted grades.

Mock exams

  • Full papers
  • Mark schemes
  • Timing
  • Feedback after each mock
Worked example

Increase £80 by 15%.

Answer£92

How a tutor helps

GCSE exams

  • Past papers
