What Is Foundation Tier GCSE Maths?
Foundation tier covers the core mathematical skills required for everyday problem solving and exams. Students are assessed on method, accuracy, and application of basic rules. Key areas include:
- Number skills: fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio
- Basic algebra: simplifying expressions, solving linear equations
- Geometry: angles, area, perimeter, volume
- Coordinates and graph plotting
- Statistics: averages, interpreting charts
- Probability: simple probability and tree diagrams
We integrate exam-style practice questions in every lesson so students become familiar with GCSE question formats and marking schemes.

- Clear step-by-step instructions
- Regular practice questions with feedback
- Timed question exercises to improve speed and accuracy
