# [3 x Reworked GCSE English Language Papers | KS4 Teaching Resource](https://www.douglaswise.co.uk/blog/reworked-gcse-english-language-papers)

 Written by [Douglas Wise](https://www.douglaswise.co.uk/blog/author/wise) | 12 August, 2025

 

 

 

Click on the buttons above to download reworked GCSE English Language Papers (AQA) that take into account the [2026 changes](https://www.aqa.org.uk/news/gcse-english-language-updates-to-our-assessments-for-summer-2026).

- **Paper 1: June 2017 (Rosabel)**
- **Paper 1: June 2020 (Stranger Child)**
- **Paper 2: June 2018 (Surfing)**

The sources are included in each document, so they can be printed as single booklets. Sentence stems for Q2, Q3 and Q4 are also included in the grey boxes. Example below...

I’ve included snips of Paper 1 to give you an idea of formatting. Paper 2 is done in the same way.

Hope the resources are useful –

Doug
