OCR GCSE past papers

Free OCR GCSE past papers for 5 subjects, from 2017–2025, with mark schemes and examiner reports. Pick a subject: every paper opens on OCR’s website.

GCSEs are sat at the end of Year 11 in England, usually at age 16, and are graded 9 to 1.

What is free: OCR first gives each series to schools for mock exams. About 14 months after the exam, it goes on OCR’s public site and stays there for at least five years, and longer for maths and science.

What is held back: Until then, the most recent series are for teachers only, on OCR’s Teach Cambridge site.
