Pearson Edexcel A-level Spanish past papers and mark schemes
18 papers · June 2018 – June 2025
This page holds 18 Pearson Edexcel A-level Spanish (9SP0) papers, and a mark scheme sits beside each of them. They fall under Paper 1: Listening, reading and translation (9SP0/01), a 2 hour paper out of 80 marks, and Paper 2: Written response to works and translation (9SP0/02), which takes 2 hours 40 minutes and is marked out of 120.
Of the 18 papers, 16 come from exam series and 2 are specimens. The exam series begin in June 2018 and end in June 2025, covering 8 series in total, so each paper has 9 entries, listed with the newest first. There are no inserts for Spanish. Doing a paper in one sitting, without notes, and then marking it against the mark scheme gives you an honest picture of where you stand.
To plan when each paper fits in, you can use Reschedule, an A-level revision planner. It asks for your subjects, exam board, the date of each paper and the days and hours you can study, then builds a daily plan from the specification and adds past papers with mark schemes for each paper. Reschedule is independent and not affiliated with any exam board.
