How to Find Out Which Exam Board You’re With for GCSEs
To get the most out of Revize 365 and ensure your revision matches your exact specifications, you need to know which awarding body (exam board) sets your GCSE papers.
Different boards—such as AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR, and WJEC Eduqas—have unique content specifications, command words, and assessment styles.
4 Ways to Check Your Exam Board
Step 1
Check Your School Timetable
Look at your official exam entry statements or subject folders provided by your teachers.
Step 2
Ask Your Subject Teacher
Your teachers know the exact specification code (e.g., Pearson Edexcel 1BS0 or OCR J277) you are studying[cite: 1, 6].
Step 3
Review Revision Guides
Check the front cover of your CGP or Pearson textbooks; they always list the specific board.
Step 4
Check the School Website
Many secondary schools publish curriculum maps and exam board lists under their exams or key stage 4 pages.
