Complete AQA GCSE Statistics Past Papers

Our new qualification is fully co-teachable alongside our GCSE Maths specification, so you can teach students of both courses in the same class.

GCSE Statistics gives students the opportunity to broaden their knowledge in a key component of maths that is relevant to everyday life. They’ll develop a core statistical grounding, as well as transferable skills and understanding that’s applicable to a range of other subjects. It will also benefit those progressing to other A-level subjects such as the sciences, geography and psychology.

Why choose AQA for GCSE Statistics

Statistics is about making decisions when there is uncertainty. Perhaps one of the most versatile areas of maths, it gives students the skills to collect, analyse, interpret and present data.

It complements subjects such as GCSE Biology, Psychology, Geography, Business and Economics, and opens the door to a variety of careers – from weather forecasting to the biological sciences.

A specification designed for you and your students

This new qualification retains much of the content that we know you and your students enjoy. Our new qualification is fully co-teachable alongside our GCSE Maths, helping you teach GCSE Statistics students in the same class. Topics are clearly and logically structured and include:

  • understanding the importance of careful planning, a clear strategy for collecting, recording and processing data in order to address an identified question or hypothesis
  • generating data visualisation and understanding the maths involved.

Clear, well-structured exams, accessible for all

To enable your students to show their breadth of knowledge and understanding, we’ve created a simple and straightforward structure and layout to our papers, using a mixture of question styles. There will be no coursework.
