GCSE quizzes written by teachers for years 10 and 11 of the curriculum. Say goodbye to monotonous worksheets and say hello to faster and more effective revision.
The General Certificate of Education suite of exams are perhaps the most important set of tests a student will take.

For an in-depth look at GCSE have a read of our GCSE Explained article.

Many exams will follow if students decide to pursue A-Levels and a university degree, but these are the first large set of exams students face, knowing their future depends on it.

Our What Does Secondary School Entail? will take you through the Secondary School journey. For more specific details about the National Curriculum at Secondary School, take a look at our Subjects at Secondary School page.
Phew. Let's just take a breather shall we? It's getting a little hot in here.
You already know that this stage of your education is extremely important. You also know that good grades won't just fall out of the sky (if only they did). It takes work to land those high grades on that fateful piece of results paper, but that doesn't mean revision has to be laborious. Often, where students go wrong is they subject themselves to revision that doesn't engage them, and it can produce underwhelming results. Long revision sessions can amount to not very much at all, if it's not the correct revision.

The English Baccalaureate (EBacc)

If your child is studying the EBacc and you want to know what it entails, have a read of our What is the English Baccalaureate? page.

GCSE Revision Boredom

When revising, boredom can happen in an instant. Before you know it, what should have been a revision session has turned into a TV show marathon... now what?

When it comes to revision, it's natural for minds to wander. There's so much information to retain and so many distractions at hand. The problem of boredom is an important one and one that has to be listened to. If students aren't engaged, they won't learn. So, how can focus be brought to this type of revision? How can students find something engaging while still learning the core curriculum? We're glad you asked.

Exam revision is notoriously difficult to get into, especially at GCSE level. Get some tips in our What is the Best Way to Revise for GCSE Exams? article.

How Education Quizzes Works

Here at Education Quizzes, we provide engaging and relevant material for students, in order to help them revise key subjects. We have quizzes on English, maths, science and more, ready and waiting for students to dive into. Each quiz has ten questions, with helpful feedback after each one. It's a revision dream! We keep students on their toes and students stay focussed.

"It's a quick way to find out where there are gaps in your knowledge and improve on them." - Jenny, Parent Reviewer

Don't Banish the Screens

With our quizzes on hand to help, students can turn screen time into revision time, and lose themselves in revision that actually engages them. The great thing is, revision doesn't have to be a solo event. Gone are the days when students have to read textbook after textbook in a silent room - students can come together to help each other revise in a way that won't leave them bored or unstimulated.

Short, Sweet but Seriously Clever

By keep our quizzes short, but packed with information, revision sessions can be more focussed, without being boring. We give students the chance to engage with material, rather than just read page after page, only to skip back a few paragraphs because nothing has sunk in...

Our revision quizzes are written by teachers and concentrate on the essential knowledge students need for exam success. Access the entire suite of quizzes for just £9.99 per month or £49.99 per year. When you consider how much some pay for tutors, and that we cover most subject areas, there really is little to deliberate!

"GRACE...! GRACE...?"

"WOOOAH! DARIA? GRACE? WHAT'S HAPPENING?"

"I don't know Zak, all I said was our first exam is in 8 weeks when she just..."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!"

"GUYS! Stop it!"

"Okay, I think I know what's happening. Look, I know this revision stuff feels like a massive amount of work but right now there's a whole load of things we can do to make it better. We need to manage our time more... "

"I bet she's going to say 'effectively'"

"...effectively."

"Told ya'... Why do I get the feeling that you're already doing this?"

"Err... I... might be...?"

"Of course you are... come on Daria, show us the goods."

"I've been making a... REVISION PLAN!"

"Oh my... that's BEAUT..."

"TERRIFYING!"

"Beauterrifying?"

"Beauterrifying."

"Shall I show you how it works?"

"Okay, look... so we know when our exams are... here in about 8 weeks. Now I've blocked out all of the stuff I have to do between now and then, like school..."

"... that shows me how long I've got left to revise. So, in the time left I've laid out all my subjects into revision sessions of about 45 minutes."

"Yeah, I can't revise for longer than that without a break and it's good to mix it all up. Keeps it fresh. But there's stuff I know I'm not so good at - For me it's Geography and English Lit - so I'm spending a bit more time on those ones."

"Oh yeah, I see, there's a lot more of those green ones up there for Geography."

"Geography's in 8 weeks' time, so each week I've set a goal to study certain topics - Ecosystems and Tectonic Plates this week. Then close to the exam, I'll look at everything again - then I'll be ready to go! Goals are really helpful, it means for each revision session I focus on set topics."

"Great isn't it! Starting early means I can prioritise what I need to do based on when my exams are. And now I have something I can STICK TO! What do you think?"

"It's...err... Big!"

"And I LOVE the colours, there's so many, it's cool."

"Yep... putting each subject into colours really helps me - looking at this huge plan means every day I know where I am and I'm not panicking about stuff I haven't revised yet because I know there's a place for it later."

"Hang on, what's this? 'Roller Disco'? That's not an exam?!"

"Ah - Free time AWAY from this! - That's really important - we've gotta put it in. And I'm the kind of girl who needs wheeeeels on her feeeeet."

"This makes... sense... huffffff!.. wow.. I love it! I feel... in control."

"Yep and because I've set goals, I know where I am and what I'm aiming for. Goals are great because for each one I reach, I get to do the most awesome part..."

"... PROGRESSSSS! And with it laid out like this you'll know if you're falling behind and you can shift things around to deal with that." "Can I... um... take yours?"

"First up, no, get lost. Second - it's a really important thing for you to do for yourself, Zak. Making a plan really helps you get into the mindset of revision. Besides which I can't imagine you would want to be getting up at six in the morning to revise Tectonic Plates like me."

"There's a six o'clock in the morning?"

"Wow. Daria... you're... beaut-errifyingly good."

How to use memory hacks

Make flash cards that you can carry around

Put the flash cards that you can recall in one pile. Leave the ones you can't remember in another pile to keep working on

Don't be afraid to re-write your notes. Repetition is really important

Use patterns of letters to remember key word in topics (mnemonics) e.g. the colours of the rainbow = 'Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain'

Mind maps are great visual aids to help you make links within subjects

It's normal to get distracted sometimes, but the key is to recognise when you are getting distracted and to do something about it.

Here are three things you can do to keep yourself focused:

If you know there is something you are likely to get distracted by, for example your mobile phone, put it on flight mode or remove it from your study zone altogether

Work with a clear desk. Get out only what you need and nothing else

Find a quiet space to work where you won't be distracted. Make sure friends and family know that you are revising and ask them not to distract you too!

Remember, if you do get distracted, don't give up. Think about why it happened, adjust your plan and make sure it doesn't happen next time.
