GCSE Great Expectations Revision Workbook

GCSE Great Expectations Revision Workbook is a five-mission activity book for the Dickens 19th-century prose set text, board-neutral across AQA, Edexcel, OCR and WJEC/Eduqas and mapped to the DfE subject content and the Assessment Objectives (AO1 informed personal response with references, AO2 analysis of language, form and structure, AO3 context). Students follow the plot — the orphan Pip’s childhood on the Kent marshes, his terrifying meeting with the convict Magwitch, his visits to Miss Havisham’s decaying Satis House and hopeless love for the cold Estella, his “great expectations” and move to London to become a gentleman, and the revelation that his secret benefactor is Magwitch, not Miss Havisham — and get to know Pip, Joe Gargery, Mrs Joe, Miss Havisham, Estella and Magwitch. Short, certain public-domain quotations are printed as focal blocks so pupils can practise close reading of methods such as symbolism and first-person narration and connect them to the themes of social class, ambition, wealth versus worth, guilt and love, all in the Victorian context of class and the idea of the “gentleman”. Plot, character, theme and context questions are auto-marked on screen, while open quotation-analysis and essay-planning tasks build the extended writing examiners reward. The whole book can be printed with a full answer key. Includes teacher, parent and student notes and is fully SEND-friendly with high-contrast and large-text modes.
