Here at tutor2u we know that timely exam-style assessment practice material is hugely important in every classroom. Here's our latest update on new and existing material to support your delivery of the Edexcel Economics A specification.

We think it's important to provide students with practice papers that they may not have seen online, and for students to be able to tackle full exam-style papers from the end of Year 12 onwards. So, we've prepared a brand new full set of 3 papers covering all 4 Themes, as well as a full set of 3 papers focused just on the Year 12 content in Themes 1 and 2. You could use these in addition to the papers we produced during 2024/2025. All of our practice papers come with very detailed mark schemes to further support learning.

Our Exam Shorts remain incredibly popular year after year, so yet again we have produced a new pack for 2025/2026! Each Exam Short pack contains shorter exam-style questions, designed to be completed in 30-60 minutes. Extracts are shorter, and each Short is focused just on 1 or 2 topics, allowing you to drip feed exam practice at appropriate moments during the academic year. You can find our full collection of Exam Shorts all the way to 2022 here. As with our full practice papers, each Exam Short includes a detailed full mark scheme.

We're also building our collection of more focused exam skill practice questions. Why not check out our Quantitative MCQ packs? Year 12 micro and macro packs are completed, and Year 13 packs are in the final stages of editing and checking. These come with full worked explanations of the correct answer. Our Assessment Mats support students with connecting together different economic concepts and building real world awareness.
