Maths revision
This was recommended by our school. It is great for extra revision which can be picked up at any point during the day.

Invaluable revision aid
My son needed to resit his GCSE Maths. He claimed to hate maths and didn’t want to know about revision. But the way this book is put together helps divide up the work to be done. He became keen to work through each chapter. Highly recommended.

Brilliant Buy!
For years, we've had the same old revision guides. Too much information on a page, not focussing on key information and trying to group Maths topics by grade, where that isn't even possible! This were the issues I had when I was in school, and the issues I had as a teacher, and Head, of Maths.You can imagine my relief when I came across the OUP guides, then! Here was a revision guide which was clear, coherent and didn't try to approximate grades to topics.The layout of the revision guides are certainly in line with common understanding of cognitive load theory and dual coding. The pages are clutter free and maintain a focus on a key learning point. This is exactly the type of book students need to be using, and exactly what I wish that I'd have had at school!From a deliberate practice perspective, the guides have clear models followed by specific deliberate practice on the same topic area. Once again, the questions are clear and in line with the models just provided. Questions are also copious, and follow exam formats too, which is very helpful.I was fortunate that when I was Head of Maths, I could change our revision book offering over to OUP. These guides sold like hot cakes too, with most students in both Year 10 and Year 11 getting themselves a copy.What should also be noted are the prices these can be purchased for through OUP. You'd expect them to cost a fortune, but they really don't!I'd strongly recommend checking out these guides, and recommending them to your students before anything else that is out there.

Great GCSE Revision
This foundation level maths book for GCSES is brilliant and very easy to use. I like the layout of the book and I feel it presents the information and questions in a simple and easy to digest way. My teen daughter is excited to get cracking with this book over the summer to try and get a head start on her GCSE maths. The book is illustrated well and the print quality is very good. It’s well made and durable so should last. I feel it’s good value for money and I do recommend it.

Nice layout, potentially unreliable
The layout is more friendly than other revision guides but I already found two mistakes which kind of makes you lose trust in what it's teaching you..See images 5x5x5x5 is not 125 and the X and y values are the wrong way round
