There is basically nothing online specifically for the 9-1 AQA Economics spec as it is so new (I have spent hours googling).
Fortunately it's quite similar to the OCR spec and a lot of the things that are taught are fairly "general" so any general microeconomics material would be relevant (I cross reference everything against the spec on the AQA website).

We've used dineshbakshi quite a bit - they are a mix of notes plus videos plus interactive quizzes. The best bet is to google the specific area that you need help on though (e.g. "Demand and Supply graphs").

Hi RedskyAtnight
I bought the OCR Book, and may have to follow that. Dineshbakshi is infuriating as so many pop up adverts on the page.
I’ll give the ocr book another go.

DS is using the OCR book at school and says it is "fine" (that is middling to high praise).

It's incredibly frustrating that there are still 0 resources available for this course. Doesn't help either of us now, but I would have steered DS away from choosing it if I'd known this in advance! At least everyone is in the same boat.

redskyatnight DD teacher has given them some tutor2u resources for AQA gcse economics. The website has some student revision guides for about 6 or 7 pounds. You might want to take a look
