How the practice tests work

No sign-up and no adverts inside a test. Nothing a pupil types in a test is sent to us – unless they choose to report a problem with a question.
Each test is marked straight away, with the right answer and a short explanation for every question at the end.
Many tests give a new mix of questions each time. Timed tests let you turn the timer off.
Teachers can collect scores: pupils copy a results code into the results page.
Every question is written by us and checked by a second, independent checker. They are practice tests, not official tests.
