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 Proportions, shown on the next page, highlights the interconnectedness of the ideas which sit in the Proportions test, with two key nodes which underpin the higher order knowledge within the knowledge space.\u003Cbr>P13 Unitary Method is a key node, feeding in to no fewer than seven successors, and P15 Express Multiplicative Relationships in a Ratio Table acts as a predecessor for six other nodes within the map. If learners develop expertise within these two key areas, their chances of success within the Proportions strand of the curriculum will be increased greatly, as it can be seen that these ideas work in tandem to underpin the ideas in dir","cbCaiioKdm8ZtzHz","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiioKdm8ZtzHz","pdf",1322720,32,"English","# Overview and Rationale\n# Concept Map and Key Features\n# Proportions\n## P1 Recognise a ratio (a : b) from multiple representations\n## P2 Create a ratio","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Teacher Companion Guide for Proportions?\",\"answer\":\"It supports teachers using Stride to pinpoint and close students’ knowledge gaps in the proportions strand of mathematics by outlining the learning focus and progression.\"},{\"question\":\"Which key ideas does the Proportions concept map highlight?\",\"answer\":\"The guide highlights interconnected nodes, including P13 Unitary Method as a key node and P15 Express Multiplicative Relationships in a Ratio Table as a predecessor to multiple successors.\"},{\"question\":\"What do learners do in P1 and P2 within the Proportions strand?\",\"answer\":\"P1 assesses understanding of unequal sharing across multiple representations, including two-part and three-part ratios matched to visuals.
