Edexcel English Language Paper 1
Edexcel Paper 1 is all about reading fiction and then crafting your own narrative. Our course guides you through the paper step by step; from interpreting each question and analysing unseen extracts to planning and producing imaginative writing using our Lightup narrative structures and sentence starters.
We break down Questions 1-5 in the Edexcel style, showing you how to analyse detail, comment on language, evaluate structure, and then move into your own descriptive or narrative writing.
With Grade 9 Edexcel writing examples, examiner insights, and clever story-planning hacks, you’ll learn how to transform ideas into polished responses. Lightup’s interactive recall design means literary devices, writing strategies, and planning methods stay sharp in your mind, so you’re ready to deliver both clear analysis and imaginative stories under exam conditions.
This isn’t about just mindless memorisation - it’s about having a system that works across the whole paper, giving you complete confidence from the first question to the last.
