Further Maths Help, please!

I'm a year 10 student who did my gcse in maths, last year. I got an 8, but this year I'm sitting a Further Maths AQA exam as well as retaking my gcse to get a 9. Can anyone give me insights into what to expect? My teacher hasn't really given us information on what to expect and l don't expect any either. Where can I find past papers, the syllabus, etc. Thanks!

I did Edexcel for normal maths, but doing AQA for further maths

This is the specification: https://filestore.aqa.org.uk/resources/mathematics/specifications/AQA-8365-SP-2018.PDFAs for the past papers; I’m not entirely sure if the AQA website has them, if not you can purchase (if you haven’t already) the CGP further maths gcse books which have a load of questions in and exams in the back of the book.Alternatively you can also buy actual papers from CGP for further maths that just come in a little paper booklet with the answers. Tell me if you need links..
