💡 Breakdown of the Grade You Need to Pass
You need a Grade 4 to officially pass English
Grade 4 is the equivalent of a low C
If you get below a Grade 4, you may need to resit English Language, depending on your school or college requirements
💡 Common Questions
🌟 Can I pass with just English Language?
Yes! Most sixth forms and colleges require a pass in English Language, not Literature.
🌟 Do I need to pass both?
Not necessarily. You just need to pass Language to avoid resitting, but passing both is ideal!
💡 Top Tip:
If you’re close to a Grade 4, focus your revision on Language Paper 1 and 2: they carry huge mark weight!
💡 Important
You only need to pass English Language to meet most post-GCSE requirements.
