GCSE English Paper 1 Question 5 - Student Examples of Short Stories


You may have your GCSEs coming up in a short amount of time – in which case you may also be thinking “How one earth am I going to pass my English?”  Well, there are a number of ways – one of which is to look at example answers written by other students.  This video shows two examples of how to write a story – something which comes up in AQA GCSE English Paper 1 and is worth a whopping 50% of the entire paper – and 25% of the entire qualification.

So, it’s worth taking a look at what others students write and the grades that they get for their writing.  If you wonder how you might get a grade 5 or above for GCSE English then look no further!

You can also find PDFs of the stories on our TES store.  Don’t worry, it’s a free resource like all of our others!
