September 2022
As we move through the GCSE Mathematics course, students are beginning to think more seriously about revision and exam preparation.
After Christmas in Year 11, mathematics teachers will provide regular emails to you and your child, containing individualised revision targets with links to appropriate resources. It is expected that students will work through these targets on a weekly basis in order to fill the gaps in their knowledge.
In addition to this bespoke revision plan, many students like to use a revision guide to help them to prepare. The following are available for purchase at a special rate through the school:
Foundation Tier
GCSE Maths Edexcel Complete Revision & Practice: Foundation – Grade 9-1 Course – £6.00 ISBN: 9781782949985
Higher Tier
GCSE Maths Edexcel Complete Revision & Practice: Higher – Grade 9-1 Course – £6.00 ISBN: 9781782944058
If your child is in year 10 then the revision guide is a useful resource to consolidate everything being covered in lessons. This allows students to start consolidating their classwork at home early on in the GCSE course making the revision process easier when they reach Year 11.
If you are unsure as to which resource is appropriate for your child, please contact their mathematics teacher, or myself for clarification. As this is a newer GCSE course, previous revision material will be of limited use. These new resources should be used to support the revision plan outlined by the class teacher.
You can order these resources online via Scopay. Please note that the deadline for placing your order is 9am, Wednesday 30th September. No orders will be processed after this date.
Yours sincerely,
