Step 1
Download the papers
Real exam papers: the Pearson Edexcel GCSE Maths papers from June 2025, opened from Pearson’s own website. Three papers per tier, 90 minutes each. Not sure of your tier? Ask your child’s teacher, or sit Higher if they are aiming for a 6 or above.
Higher tier (grades 4–9) · Edexcel June 2025
Foundation tier (grades 1–5) · Edexcel June 2025
Already sat a mock or a past paper? You can upload that instead — just tell us which paper it was. Marked it yourself? Turn the marks into a grade.
Step 2
Upload the answers
Tell us a little about the student, then add a scan or photos of each paper.

Higher tier · Pearson Edexcel
142 / 240 marks 59%
A solid Higher-tier script with most of the marks lost in two places: multi-step algebra on the non-calculator paper, and the last third of each paper, where answers stop being attempted. The method on shorter questions is secure.
With targeted work on algebraic manipulation and timing, a grade 7 is realistic before the summer.
Marked by a specialist GCSE Maths tutor
| Paper | Marks | Score | Examiner comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paper 1 | 44 / 80 | 55% | Strong on number; lost marks on rearranging and on the proof question. |
| Paper 2 | 51 / 80 | 64% | Good calculator use. Two long questions left blank. |
| Paper 3 | 47 / 80 | 59% | Accurate geometry; statistics answers lacked the working for method marks. |
Topic breakdown
Strengths
- Fractions, percentages and standard form
- Angle facts and circle theorems
- Clear, well-set-out working on short questions
Areas to improve
- Rearranging and solving multi-step equations
- Histograms and cumulative frequency
- Reaching the final third of each paper
Common error patterns
- Sign errors when expanding brackets
- Answers given without working, so no method marks
- Rounding too early in multi-step calculations
Your revision plan
- Two weeks on algebraic manipulation, with one timed non-calculator section each week
- Statistics diagrams: one topic per lesson, then exam questions
- A full timed paper every fortnight, with the last 20 minutes planned
Questions
Questions about the paper analysis
Is the paper analysis really free?
Yes. There is nothing to pay and nothing to sign up to. It is the same marking and feedback we give our own students, and you are under no obligation to book lessons afterwards.
Who marks the papers?
A specialist GCSE Maths tutor, against the mark scheme for the paper, awarding method marks as an examiner would.
How do I get my report?
When you send your papers you get a private link to your report page. It shows the progress of the marking, and the full report appears there as soon as it is ready. We email you when it is.
Can I send a mock or past paper my child has already sat?
Yes. Choose “A mock or past paper I already have” and tell us which paper it was. Upload the answers you wrote; we will mark them against that paper.
Do I need to send all three papers?
No. One paper gives a useful picture; all three give a predicted grade and a full topic breakdown, because the three papers together cover the whole course.
What should I upload?
A PDF scan, or clear photos of every page of the answers, in order. Photos taken flat in good light work well. Large photos are shrunk in your browser before they upload.
Who can see the papers?
Only our tutors. Files are stored privately, your report link is secret, and nothing is shared or published. We only use your details to send your report.
Want help acting on the report?
A real 45-minute maths lesson with a specialist, free. Bring the report and we will start on the topics it flags.
