Reading to Access Non-Fiction Tracker Tests

Hi all! These are a mixture of reworked PPQs from the old specification and articles I have sourced myself from some careful scouring of the internet. I intend to use them as mocks or tracker tests to chart my students' progress through the unit 'Reading to access non-fiction and media texts'. They are to be used in conjunction with the new CCEA GCSE English Language paper. Hopefully you find them useful.
