Is Kramizo free for Edexcel GCSE students preparing for English Language?

Are the Imaginative and creative writing: writing to describe, narrate or explore questions aligned to the official Edexcel GCSE English Language syllabus?
Every question is written against the published Edexcel GCSE English Language specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real Edexcel paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from Edexcel.
