This download contains practice assessment materials for AQA GCSE Sociology (Education).
It contains 5 exam sections, 5 mark-schemes, and 5 model 12-mark answers.
An ‘exam section’ is half of a full-exam: students should complete it in 50 minutes, making these ideal for assessment lessons.
This download covers the topic of ‘Sociology of Education’ - you can save money buy buying assessment materials for all four-sections here.
Complete units for GCSE Sociology can be downloaded here.
Please note:
These are not official exam scripts, I do not work for AQA: I have aimed to make reasonable practice exam-questions based on the specimin material already provided. All items are editable: if you think the 12-mark model-answers are too intimidating, feel free to reduce them.

This fully resourced lesson is for those teaching Islam as a comparative religion at GCSE level. It is the fifth in our seven-lesson Islam unit for Theme E: Religion, Crime & Punishment and focuses on Muslim teachings, views and beliefs about using corporal punishment as a response to crime. The lesson deals with difficult issues and tries to represent Islam in a balanced way: whilst not shying away from some of the more ‘controversial’ aspects of the Qur’anic stance on corporal punishment.
It was designed with the AQA Religious Studies specification in mind, but relevant to all GCSE Religious Studies teachers covering Islam.
The lesson features starters, learning objectives, key-words, key-information, pictures, instructions and information for a poster-design task, AfL tasks, discussion and debate tasks and homework.
This download includes:
-A full lesson PowerPoint
-A comprehensive knowledge hunt, focusing on Muslim views
-Instructions, pictures and information for a poster-design task
-A detailed lesson plan
-AfL tasks & homework
The lesson is centered around a poster-design task. All necessary resources to undertake this activity are included in this download (instructional sheet, pictures and information). All included resources are editable.
We’ve made 10-lesson units covering Christian views for each of the themes, you can now bolster these with 7-lesson add-on units for the comparative religions: in this case Islam. Download individual units or all 17 lessons (Christianity & Islam) together to save money!
Positive reviews are warmly welcome!
