This resource is a fully original AQA English Language Paper 2 sample paper, designed to give students realistic, high‑quality exam practice with fresh, engaging material. The theme for this paper is communication technology, featuring two brand‑new non‑fiction sources written specifically for this resource:

Source A (2007): A contemporary article exploring the excitement and optimism surrounding the rise of early social media.

Source B (1891): A Victorian editorial expressing concerns about the newly emerging telephone and its impact on society.

Both texts are entirely original, written in contrasting voices and viewpoints, and crafted to mirror the style, tone and challenge level of genuine AQA Paper 2 sources.

This resource was created by me, with the assistance of Microsoft Copilot AI to help generate and refine the original texts. All content has been reviewed, edited and quality‑checked to ensure accuracy, clarity and suitability for classroom use.
