  • enable you to test students’ regularly (every 8 to 10 weeks) in a formal examination setting.
  • build students’ confidence in sitting A Level and AS Economics exams early on in the course.
  • identify any gaps in your students’ knowledge and understanding that need to be re-visited.
  • familiarise your students with the skills examiners look for and how to secure high grades. 

“As a resource to assess both knowledge development and examination skills, these papers are fantastic. They allow pupils to gain a true insight into the nature of the economics papers and has allowed me to have meaningful conversations about examination technique from a much earlier stage in the course. The mark schemes and model answers make for a package which represents great value for money.  Many thanks for such useful resources.”  Mark Seccombe, Pangbourne College, November 2016 

“Thank you very much! Just the sort of thing I’m looking for. I think that the Economics Theme Interim and End of Theme papers are excellent.”  Clare Lutwyche, Prior’s Field School, June 2017 

“I think these are excellent resources – many thanks.”  Mike Feven, Highgate, June 2017 

APT’s MOCK EXAM PAPERS 
These papers have been written by an experienced senior examiner of A Level Economics and are ideal for mock examinations.  The style and format is based on the sample assessment material produced by Edexcel.  In addition, for questions worth 12 or more marks (where ‘Level Descriptors’ are used to mark students’ answers), detailed example model answers have been provided in paragraph form, rather than a list of relevant points anticipated to be raised in the answer.  Answers to questions worth 12 or more marks, have also been annotated to show where assessment objectives have been met (ie knowledge, application, analysis and evaluation).  

“They are a fantastic resource!  I have just had clearance that I can order the other sets.”  Imogen Tansley (Mrs), Head of Economics & Business, Northampton High School, November 2016 

“These are perfect and we look forward to receiving the others.”  Mr A White, The Joseph Whitaker School, October 2016 

“I was very impressed with Paper1.  I use a competitor’s, but yours is on another level.”  Elena Themistocieous, Cyprus, October 2016
