If you are to get the grade that you deserve for your GCSE Textiles, then you will need to revise for your theory examination. REMEMBER that the theory mark can take your controlled assessment mark up or down.

Below you will find past papers, advice on exam technique, and other preparation help for your theory examination, including detailed revision help on the first part of the paper.

For revision help on different parts of the Textiles theory specification, go to the theory pages.

Studystack Flashcards

Research has shown that flashcards are a really good way for you to revise. I am building sets of flashcards for you to use on the topics that we are covering in the lessons. To find these go to Studystack.  If you search for 'Highcliffe' then this should bring up a list of the flashcards I have made. The ones you need are those that begin 'Highcliffe 11'.

BBC Bitesize

This is limited in the information it offers but what is there is very good. BBC Bitesize
