Full Mock vs 45-Minute Diagnostic — What’s the difference?

We offer two types of assessments to suit different school needs, timetables, and data requirements.

Full Mock Examinations
A full mock replicates the experience of a real GCSE or Cambridge National exam as closely as possible. Students complete a complete paper under exam conditions, allowing departments to generate reliable grade boundaries, detailed performance data, and realistic exam practice.

This option is ideal when you want:

• Accurate grade predictions

• Full exam endurance practice

• Detailed question-level analysis

• Preparation for formal mock periods

45-Minute Diagnostic Mocks
Diagnostic mocks are shorter, targeted assessments designed to identify strengths, weaknesses, and misconceptions quickly. They focus on key specification areas and exam skills without requiring a full lesson or extended exam slot.

This option is ideal when you want:

• Rapid assessment between teaching units

• Low-stakes progress checks

• Intervention planning data

• Efficient use of curriculum time

Both options include external marking and detailed feedback, so departments receive meaningful data without adding to staff workload.
