Deciding what to revise can be feel like trying to climb a mountain. The important thing is to make a start and step by step you will get to the top. There are many ways to identify what topics to revise and to decide, which most need your attention.
Module Order (Current Year 10 & 11)
Firstly there is a module order to what you have been taught. This order will be different depending whether you are preparing for Higher GCSE Maths or Foundation GCSE Maths.
| Year 11 | Maths Foundation Route Map |
| Year 11 | Maths Higher Route Map |
Your Maths teacher will teach all of the chapters needed before the relevant assessment, however they may chose to teach the units or chapters in a different order to the route map.
Module Order (Current Year 9 & 10)
The module order will be the same if you are in higher or foundation sets. The only resource that will be different is the text book that you are working from.
| Year 9 & 10 | Maths Route Map |
Your Maths teacher will teach all of the chapters needed before the relevant assessment, however they may chose to teach the units or chapters in a different order to the route map.
Text Book
More detail of the contents of these chapters can be found in the textbook itself, to which you have access to an electronic copy of using the Kerboodle site. If you are unsure which book you have been using then please check with your teacher.
What went wrong in previous Assessments?
Each time a student does an assessment in KS4, their teacher will send them a link to a Google form, which will help collect information about their assessments. This information is collected in a spread sheet like this.
Look in Your Exercise Book.
The students exercise book is of course a great resource for revision and an effective list of topics that need revising. It is also encouraged that students write a list of topics that they got wrong in previous assessments in the back of their exercise book. This list should also form a list of topics that need revisiting.
