Designed to help students starting their GCSEs – either for the first time or as a resit – the tests are accessible for all and adapt to students’ knowledge, delivering the right amount of challenge.\u003Cbr>Our new maths tests will allow teachers to pinpoint gaps in their students’ conceptual knowledge-saving them time and empowering students, who will understand how to improve. They’re fully funded for schools and colleges, easy to use for teachers and engaging for students.\u003Cbr>The five short tests, created with the Key Stage 1 and 2 and Key Stage 3 guidance in mind, focus on key areas of maths that experts have identified as the most impactful for GCSE success. They come with personalised learning and next steps to allow students to develop in both knowledge and confidence.\u003Cbr>Rationale\u003Cbr>We know that maths is a hierarchical subject, with knowledge being built upon foundational maths which underpins the new concept. We have analysed data from hundreds of thousands of exam questions and found that even though content is first encountered in the early stages of a learner’s schooling, a significant proportion of learners answer questions on the foundations of maths incorrectly.\u003Cbr>With this in mind, we want to empower teachers to take control of their classrooms and provide a nurturing environment in which gaps within key prerequisite understanding are identified and corrective instruction is deployed, filling the gaps and ensuring that more complex content can be taught, safe in the knowledge that learners have the underlying knowledge required to be successful in their lessons, and thrive in the GCSE examinations.\u003Cbr>Key features\u003Cbr>The Concept Map for Algebra, shown on the following page, identifies A21 Order of Operations as key understanding for success with algebraic techniques, particularly with A27 Solving Equations where the variable appears on one side of the equals sign only.\u003Cbr>Order of Operations has many predecessors which can be summarised as the four mathematical operations, and it is clear that to succeed in Algebra, learners must have developed significant expertise with addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, appreciating the many relationships that exist between the four operations. |  |\n| 2 | |\n\nConcept Map  \n2.
