Question bank › AQA GCSE French AQA GCSE French questions by topic Every question from every AQA GCSE French paper, 2020–2025, part by part. Filter by topic, paper or year, open the mark scheme under any question, and download a set as a PDF. AQA changed GCSE French for exams from summer 2026: the new specification (8652) has new themes, set vocabulary lists, a dictation in the Listening paper and shorter writing tasks. Most questions here are from the 2018 to 2025 papers (8658), still good practice for reading, listening and writing; the 2026 format is in AQA's specimen papers, marked "2026 specimen" (pick it with the Specification filter). Listening questions play AQA's own recording. The Speaking paper is left out, as its role-plays and photo cards are marked by a teacher, and so are the few Reading questions whose texts AQA removes from its published copies for copyright.
