Hi do you know if igcse assessment materials have been released as they seem to be locked on Pearson. Gcse I can access but I am doing some Igcses too. Thanks
i'm pretty sure if your sitting igcses this year the assessments are unseen so they won't be released beforehand as this is what I've been told by my exam centre

The GCSE maths ones still seem to be locked for me. Please could someone send the actually papers on here since they have been released anyway.
They aren't papers as such - you'll need to access them yourself.

Hi guys, 
Exam Boards have now released the additional assessment material that may be used by teachers in any assessments that you have up and coming. This doesn't seem to have been done in a particularly co-ordinated way, so I thought we would bring it all together in one place so that you can find these questions if you want to.

We will try and keep this list updated as we find more.
TSR's Guidance for using the Additional Assessment Material (AAM)
Number 1: The most important bit of advice we can give, do not panic. There is no benefit to downloading every single resource and trying to cram them all in the hope that you may recognise a question in one of your exams (if your teachers even decide to set you one). Teachers have a range of questions to choose from and trying to memorise answers to every possible combination of exam questions and these materials is not an effective way of studying.
Number 2: If you are going to use these as revision resources, make sure you are only looking at topics that you have covered with your teachers. Teachers will not be setting you surprise questions from topics that you have missed due to the pandemic.
Number 3: Take a second and ask yourself, how do I learn best? For some people going through these questions and trying to answer them may be the best thing for them, but for others it may be better to trust your existing revision methods. There's nothing wrong with going back to your mind maps or textbooks.
Number 4: If in doubt, ask your teachers. Your teachers are the ones who will be assessing you this summer, so they are the best placed in supporting and advising you on how to incorporate this material into your revision.
If you have any questions about what the above means to you, please feel free to ask below and we will try and support as much as possible. This is all very new to everyone involved!

If teachers do set an exam, is it a certainty that the questions in the assessment materials may be used? Or do they have their own private papers that they can choose from.

Hi! Is there sources available like this for CIE As Levels?
CIE AS and A level exams are going ahead as normal, so the whole Assessment Materials business is not needed.

Do you have anything on the Pearson Edexcel International A level examinations?
Original post by Evil Homer
That's a good question! Let me see what we can do
Pearson are sending out new unseen papers to schools. These can either be done on a specified date, just like normal exams, or teachers can choose to use them after that date in any way they wish. There is therefore no need for the Additional Assessment materials business.
it is all very confusing, does anyone know how to find the AQA A-Level business paper and the OCR A-Level Biology A business paper?
Thanks
Thanks

No - it's your school/college's choice what they give you, nobody can tell you exactly what they'll use so best just to treat these as extra question practice
