A fully resourced unit of 20 lessons (although the delivery usually takes longer than this) introducing students to the AQA English Language GCSE exam papers and questions in detail for the first time. This usually takes around 8 weeks to deliver and is very much led by breaking down the assessment objectives (AOs) and focusing on specific skills in each lesson.
As a scheme of work, it works well in year 10 as either the beginning of the GCSE course or in the lead up to a first round of full mock papers, depending on how you divide your curriculum and assessment schedule. There are assessment lessons on Language Paper 1, Questions 4 and 5 (my department then continue on to teach the Language Paper 2 skills and the year group then sit a Language Paper 2 mock).
It uses a combination of self-sourced extracts and AQA specimen paper extracts, all of which are attached. The only thing you may need to do is alter the page numbers in the lessons if and when you get the extracts put together as a booklet or not (I do not have it in PDF booklet form unfortunately, as it has always been produced for me as a hard copy from hard copies).
The lessons on descriptive/narrative writing do borrow some resources that have been made available for free by Stuart Pryke (@SPryke2 on Twitter).
