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. Copyright Adam Godwin (2018) - strictly not for re-distribution.
