I've been using Exam Ninja books for around five years to help my nine-year-old daughter with her schooling. We buy a set for each year and my daughter works her way through them, a little each day, with my assistance. These are an excellent resource for boosting a child's learning journey and supporting the school curriculum.

About the KS3 English Practice Papers (Ages 13-14)

If your Year 9 child is preparing for end-of-Key Stage 3 assessments, KS3 English Practice Papers (Ages 13-14) from CGP delivers three complete, exam-style test sets that mirror the format and challenge of in-school tests. Each set includes a Writing Paper, a Reading Paper with a full-colour pull-out booklet, and a Shakespeare Paper covering either Romeo and Juliet or The Tempest, giving your child the chance to practise every strand of the KS3 English curriculum under realistic test conditions.

Sample reading comprehension questions from the practice papers
Inside pages show detailed reading comprehension questions, including literary analysis and inference tasks

Every paper is supported by a full mark scheme, so your child can check their own work, understand where marks are won or lost, and learn from mistakes without waiting for teacher feedback. The pull-out reading booklets replicate the layout pupils will see in real assessments, helping them manage time and navigate longer texts confidently. Whether your child needs to strengthen their essay-writing skills, sharpen their comprehension, or tackle Shakespeare with more assurance, this book provides structured, repeatable practice that builds familiarity and reduces exam-day nerves.

Extract from Dracula by Bram Stoker with accompanying questions
Full-colour reading booklet featuring classic literature extracts, such as Dracula, with challenging comprehension questions

By the time your child completes all three sets, they will have worked through a wide range of question types, refined their written expression, and gained the confidence to approach Year 9 assessments calmly and capably. Aligned to the English National Curriculum for KS3, this resource is ready to dispatch as a physical book, making it easy to slot into your home revision routine without the need for screens or subscriptions.

This practice paper book is ideal for Year 9 pupils preparing for end-of-Key Stage 3 tests, as well as Year 7 and Year 8 students looking to build skills ahead of time. The clear mark schemes and realistic paper format make independent study straightforward, and the inclusion of both classic and contemporary texts ensures pupils engage with the breadth of literature they will encounter in school.

  • Three full sets of KS3 English practice papers covering Writing, Reading, and Shakespeare
  • Each Reading Paper includes a full-colour pull-out booklet to replicate exam conditions
  • Shakespeare Papers based on Romeo and Juliet or The Tempest
  • Complete mark schemes provided for every test, enabling self-assessment and progress tracking
  • Perfect for Year 7, Year 8, and Year 9 pupils, aligned to the English National Curriculum and KS3 SATs
