2025 Pearson Edexcel GCSE Arabic Paper 4F Question Paper and Mark Scheme Combined (1AA0/4F: Writing in Arabic Foundation tier)
Paper 4F is the Foundation Tier Writing component of the Pearson Edexcel GCSE in Arabic (specification 1AA0). This paper assesses students’ ability to write in Arabic using familiar vocabulary, simple structures, and clear communication.
It typically includes three tasks, with students required to answer all of them. Tasks cover everyday topics from the GCSE Arabic themes (identity & culture, local area, school, future plans, global issues, etc.). The structure commonly includes:
A brief, guided writing activity using simple sentences, often based on pictures or prompts.
A slightly extended piece requiring students to communicate information, opinions, and basic descriptions.
A short, structured translation using familiar vocabulary and basic grammar.
The mark scheme evaluates:
Communication: responding to the prompt and conveying meaning clearly.
Content coverage: addressing all bullet points.
Linguistic accuracy: correct use of basic vocabulary, spelling, verb forms, and simple structures.
Clarity rather than complexity — Foundation Tier rewards correct, straightforward Arabic.
The combined version of the 2025 document includes both:
the 4F Question Paper, and
the official Mark Scheme, showing how marks are awarded for each task.
This paper represents 25% of the total GCSE qualification and is targeted at students aiming for the Foundation grade range.
