Mock Exam Analyser (MEA) – International GCSE English as a Second Language
Get a deeper understanding of students’ performance in their mocks and how they can improve, in time for their exams. MEAs are available for use with our May/June 2019 and May/June 2022 papers, exclusively for OxfordAQA schools. Step-by-step instructions are included, or you can read our ‘how to’ guide.
Enhanced Results Analysis™ tool
Our free Enhanced Results Analysis™ tool (ERA™) gives you instant analysis of your students’ results. You’ll see how students performed in each unit and topic, and the marks they received for each question. This allows you to see which questions proved the most challenging, or how different classes performed, so you know what areas to focus on in following years. ERA™ is available after results are published.
