Paper 1 · Questions + answers & explanations

Build confidence with complete original passages. These original multiple-choice questions are selected from Plusling’s reviewed bank, starting with familiar ideas and moving towards moderate reasoning.

Sir Thomas Rich’s uses Gloucestershire’s shared GL test for 2027 entry. The 2028 entry route changes to FSCE and includes wider primary subjects and different response formats, so follow the guidance for your child’s year.

The topic balance is Plusling’s editorial choice. These resources are not official school papers and are not endorsed by the school. Read the school guide for current admissions stages and entry-year details.
