GCSE Algebra Boot Camp
Four Saturdays on GCSE algebra, live and online, with games, real exam-style questions and a follow-up worksheet and quiz after every session. Higher and Foundation run as separate tracks.
What an hour is
- Taught live. Not a recording. You can ask, and it gets answered in the session.
- You answer as it runs. Live quizzes through the session.
- Practice afterwards. A follow-up quiz mission on MathedUp, marking itself as you go, with your progress saved.
What we work on
Four blocks on the Higher track and four on the Foundation track, across four Saturdays.
Higher track
- Manipulateexpanding, factorising, algebraic fractions
- Solvequadratics, simultaneous equations, inequalities
- Graphstraight lines, parallel and perpendicular, curves
- Functions, sequences and rearrangingf(x), nth term, changing the subject
Foundation track
- Speak algebraexpressions, like terms, substitution
- Expand and solvebrackets, factorising, linear equations
- Sequences and straight linesnth term, coordinates, y = mx + c
- Formulae, inequalities and techniquerearranging, inequalities, worded problems
Listed in the order it builds, because you cannot solve what you cannot manipulate. It is not a ranking.
Four Saturdays, not a checklist. We do what the room needs, properly.
Every one of these can come up in your exam, and so can everything else on the specification. This is where a session starts, not a list of what to skip.
Shortlisted from a 246-paper exam corpus and examiners’ reports.
