Advance information

To make exams in 2022 less daunting, including the November resit, students will be told in advance some information about the exam content, helping them to manage their exam preparation. The Department for Education has confirmed that advance information for the November resit can now be released.

The November 2022 advance information is different advance information to the summer series. You can now access your advance information for November 2022.

The advance information should be read alongside the JCQ teacher guidance and the advance information guidance which was published on 9 December.

Following further quality checks after the release of the advance information on 7 February, we have updated the document link title that appears on our website for the GCSE English Language 2.0 advance information. There are no changes to the actual content of the advance information that was released on 7 February.
