GCSE Mathematics for AQA Higher Student Book with Online Subscription (2 Years)
A new series of bespoke, full-coverage resources developed for the 2015 GCSE Mathematics qualifications.
Written for the AQA GCSE Mathematics Higher tier specification for first teaching from 2015, this print Student Book and digital bundle covers the new GCSE Mathematics qualification. With a strong focus on developing problem-solving skills, reasoning and fluency it helps students understand concepts, apply techniques, solve problems, reason, interpret and communicate mathematically. Tablet-friendly rich digital content features a range of interactive walkthroughs, animations and questions. Comprehensive provision for both summative and formative assessment includes differentiated pre-set quizzes and a test generator that allows teachers to compile their own assessments, both with inbuilt reporting to track students’ progression.
