Resources to help you teach over one year
The collection of resources on this page is designed to help you prepare to teach our GCSE Maths to post-16 resit students. They'll help you to reinforce and develop GCSE Maths skills across all curriculum areas. They have been produced by experienced maths specialist Julia Smith.
Getting started
Julia hosted a preparing to teach webinar in autumn 2017: Preparing to teach: post-16 one-year resit
We also have a document with 12 tips for teaching GCSE Maths to post-16 students.
Assessing basic skills and fundamental knowledge
In collaboration with Julia we have also put together three sets of basic skills questions and eight sets of fundamental knowledge questions to help you identify gaps in students' knowledge of maths skills and knowledge at the start of the resit course.
Aiming for the November resits
Our Aiming for the November resits teaching guide is designed to prepare yourself and your learners for a flying start in September.
One year route map
Our one-year route map is tailored for resit students and supports the delivery of GCSE Maths (8300) over one year.
Revision resources
Our revision checklists have been developed to work alongside the topic audit resource to be a more impactful revision aid.
