AQA English Language Paper 2
AQA Paper 2 tests your ability to analyse non-fiction texts and write persuasively - and Lightup shows you how to approach the entire paper with confidence. We walk you through every question from start to finish, beginning with understanding the task, analysing extracts, and comparing sources, before moving into persuasive writing.
You’ll learn how to build impactful arguments using our famous Persuasive Burger Structure, combined with proven Lightup sentence starters and essay frameworks that make persuasive techniques second nature.
Alongside these strategies, you’ll get Grade 9 model answers tailored to AQA, examiner hacks that reveal what the mark scheme rewards, and recall tools that lock in techniques like rhetorical devices, tone, and structure.
By the time you sit the paper, you’ll know how to handle both the reading and writing sections with clarity, flair, and confidence; turning what feels like a stressful exam into one you can control from start to finish.
