OCR GCSE Citizenship Studies – Paper 2: Citizenship in Action (Question Paper) (J270/02) – 2025

This question paper assesses students’ ability to apply citizenship knowledge and skills to real-life actions and participation, based on the OCR GCSE Citizenship Studies (9–1) specification. It focuses on active citizenship, research, planning, and evaluation.

Paper 2 is centred on students’ citizenship action, which involves investigating a social or political issue, planning and carrying out an action, and evaluating its impact.

The paper tests students on:

  • Identifying and researching a citizenship issue

  • Planning and carrying out a course of action

  • Using evidence and sources effectively

  • Evaluating impact, success, and challenges

  • Reflecting on learning and participation

Questions require students to refer to their own action project and demonstrate skills in analysis, evaluation, and reflection. The exam includes structured questions and extended responses, assessing both knowledge and participation skills.

This question paper is ideal for exam preparation, classroom support, and independent study, helping students understand what is required to successfully complete and write about their citizenship action.
