The four consultation documents here from QCA set out the subject criteria for first teaching in September 2012 for AS and A level in:
*Mathematics
*Use of mathematics
*Further mathematics
*Use of statistics

The Top, Side and Front views of shapes are given. The challenge is to make the shapes using cubes. As an extension, 3D representations of the shapes can be drawn on isometric paper. This resource is suitable for Key Stage 3 and could be used as an extension of the topic of 2D representations of 3D shapes.

This resource, from Mathematics for Engineering Exemplars, shows how to build a mathematical model of liquid draining through a tank and how to use the model to determine the time required for a tank to completely drain. Bernoulli’s conservation of energy equation, which requires integration and differentiation, is...

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of activities involving drawing, from investigating growing patterns to making ellipses by folding.

This resource is part of a Nuffield Maths collection exploring Shape and Space. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.

By using this resource students will learn how to draw and format basic shapes in Word.

Students learn how to draw and format basic shapes in Word.

This resource is part of the Nuffield Maths Level 1 Foundation resource collection.

This is a problem solving lesson, designed to help you assess how well students are able to:

• Interpret and use scale drawings
• Use proportional reasoning
• Work with metric units

The initial problem is to construct and conversion graph to convert between measurements in the...

In this Christmas maths activity from the IET, children are tasked with making a brand new uniform for Santa's elves and calculating the number of possible outfit combinations.

This STEM activity supports pupils in a meaningful context to write and calculate statements for multiplication and to understand how to determine a number of different possibilities using the dress-the-model activity. Pupils will use a dress-the-model handout which they can colour in and then cut out, to find out...

Drinks cans are made by stamping out circular discs from a sheet of tin. Given the dimensions of the sheet of tin and the diameter of the circle stamped out, students are required to calculate the wastage and to investigate whether there is a more efficient method. The problem requires students to be able to...

This resource pack contains eight activities based around water and personal finance education. Each activity is aimed at a specific age group at primary level and provides curriculum links to aspects of mathematics, science and PSHE. The activities are:

*[b]Needs and wants associated with water[/b]-Assess...

This Study Plus unit from the National Strategies engages students in discussion about attractiveness, using photographs of the faces of famous people. The aim of this unit is for students to explore the golden ratio as a determinant of attractiveness. In particular the link to facial beauty is explored using the...

This resource, from Mathematics for Engineering Exemplars, introduces mathematical models for the risk assessment of dropped load, which are used to analyse the safety of structures within nuclear power stations. Here students learn about the formulae which engineers use to calculate the maximum dynamic stress and...

This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources exploring Calculus. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level.

This activity explores the rate of drug clearance from the body, both for common analgesic compounds and for caffeine.
