How does knowing what other schools did help you in any way?
Edexcel have produced 6 sets of practice papers and a set of mock papers for the new specification, PiXL have produced papers as have CGP and Churchill maths. Your school could use any of them or make something up themselves. Revise everything you you have learned in maths because it will probably be on one of the 3 papers and do as many exam practice papers as you can so you are familiar with the style of problem solving questions.

Yes they have created a set of mock exam papers that are only supposed to be available to teachers. Not much point making a mock exam paper if students can see it before the exam :smile:

I'm sure your teacher will let you see a copy of it but maybe not until later in the year when it's no longer being used in other schools for mock exams.
