Assessment
There is no coursework / controlled assessment for GCSE RS. There are two exams at the end of Year 11:
· Paper 1: The Study of Two Religions
· Paper 2: Thematic Studies
Each paper is one hour forty-five minutes long, and it is worth 50% of the GCSE. Each paper has a range of multiple choice, short answer, and essay-style questions.
