These resources are the product of my retirement! After years as a teacher, I tutored. Tackling different exam boards, texts and aspects of English I had to develop lots of materials, which I'm hoping will help those of you still at the chalk face.

Eduqas/WJEC An Inspector Calls 23 exam questions with extract references

(1)
23 extract-based exam questions. As the text is still copyright protected, I’ve just made reference to the extract using the Heinemann edition for page reference, and the initial and end quote. The edition I’ve used has the same page numbers as the Hereford edition of the play, and was first published in 1992. The questions cover character and themes. They should provide lots of useful revision and exam practice.

Key extracts from the story have varied styles of question: vocabulary, language, information recall, author’s craft etc. This should provide useful practice for GCSE 9-1 for KS3 students.It’s a popular ghost story, but written in a typical Dickens style to introduce the language and Victorian context to pre-GCSE students. To see style and variety of questions, please look at my free resource on the start of Hard Times

They include different types of questions on vocabulary, language and straight-forward information retrieval, making them useful exercises for KS3 students preparing FOR GCSE 9-1, or to test knowledge and understanding of the text.

The Monkey's Paw, W W Jacobs 8 extracts with questions

(0)
One of the first horror stories, this famous and often copied tale is a good introduction to both the genre and the style of nineteenth century literature. Each of the 8 extracts is taken from a key moment and includes a range of questions, (vocabulary, language analysis, and information retrieval.) As such, I think they are similar to GCSE 9-1 papers and so might be useful for pre-GCSE students, or for tuition.
