Third-party copyright restrictions

We can't publish some of our past papers on the web for copyright reasons. This applies particularly to papers containing extracts, quotations, diagrams and photos from books, magazines and newspapers. And sometimes we have to delete third-party material from the papers we put on the web: full versions of these question papers are usually available in print.

Mark schemes are not normally subject to third-party restrictions and, therefore, the full suite will be published, as far as possible, here in due course. We will continue to make available for purchase printed copies of all mark schemes via the publications catalogue.

Copyright

Our question papers and mark schemes are protected by copyright law. They may be downloaded and printed for internal school/college purposes only in connection with studying for exams.

To request permission to reproduce them please contact us in writing. Permission to reproduce them in an electronic format is not normally given. If you have any questions about copyright please contact us.
