For any teachers of Edexcel IGCSE Mathematics, this analysis of common topics from Addvance Maths will be very useful.

Following the list, you will find links to resources.

My page on IGCSE includes a collection of resources for the Edexcel specification, including Amanda Austin’s lovely collection of Revision Practice Grids and Gareth Westwater’s extensive collection of IGCSE questions by topic.

On Dr Austin Maths note the excellent Revision Practice Grids available in each section; this set of 23 resources is aimed at IGCSE.

Remember that we have some excellent resources for creating question sets on chosen topics.
See Custom Maths Revision Starters.

When discussing questions with students, I try to show a visual representation wherever possible, as this can really help understanding. Some excellent interactives are also available, which can allow students to study further examples and check their answers.

We could look at this example from Maths Genie (Binomial Hypothesis Testing under AS Mechanics and Statistics):

The worked solution is provided on Maths Genie; we could also illustrate this using Dr Tom Bennison’s GeoGebra applet, hosted on his blog, MathematicsAndCoding which clearly shows that 35 is not in either tail of the distribution.

Mike Hadden’s Excel files provide another way to illustrate this question. Under A/AS Statistics files, we see BinHyp and Binhyp2. BinHyp provides a graphical illustration, and BinHyp2 allows us to check the calculations for the critical regions.

Students will be expected to use their calculators to calculate probabilities. This Calculator Guide Video is very helpful (the Casio fx-991CW works in a very similar way).

For further examples – see the post-Statistical Hypothesis Testing.

On Swinton Maths, you can some very useful recently created A Level Further Maths practice papers and full solutions for Core Pure 1, Core Pure 2, and Further Mechanics 1.

On Dr Oliver Mathematics, you will find many excellent examples and very clear worked solutions to examination questions for Edexcel GCSE Mathematics, A Level and Further Maths, AQA Level 2 Further Mathematics, and SQA. Also, note the Can You Do This (GCSE)? and Can You Do This (A Level)? sections. There are some great questions in these sections. The A Level Can You Do This section includes Maths and Further Maths examples.

On the subject of AQA Level 2 Furter Maths, Dr Oliver’s site is included in this AQA Level 2 Further Math collection. The collection includes practice papers created in 2023

Pearson has very helpfully created this post for Maths GCSE aimed at students. Links to revision resources for students are provided, the resources include revision checklists, exam tips, YouTube videos on using a calculator and also key topics. A set of posters is provided, including command words.

For regular varied daily practice, Wayne Chadburn has uploaded the final instalments of his revision calendars for this academic year – April & May. Calendars are available for Foundation and Higher, all have solutions.

From Jenna Sanderson on TES: GCSE Revision – Essential Facts and Formulae Fill in the Gaps Recall Tasks Higher and Foundation.

Fill in the blanks type exercises can make excellent revision; for further such resources, see this this Fill in blanks collection.

On the subject of filling in the blanks – try Simplifying Surds Using Prime Factors – Fill In The Blanks from Andy Lutwyche, one of his recently added resources. The set of 11 questions with solutions includes 5 challenge questions where the surds are only partially simplified.

For Core Maths, Dave Gale is adding revision resources (with solutions) to his collection. These revision resources are for AQA paper 1. I like the style of these revision sheets, which all have four sections: Memory, Numerical Data, Graphical Data, and Finance.
