An end of topic assessment on non-calculator arithmetic, suitable for a GCSE Foundation class (or a Higher class who need to practise this topic). Written for the new 9-1 spec.
The assessment covers:
all four operations on integers
dividing with a remainder
bank statements
multi-step worded questions
multiplying decimals
The resource comes with worked solutions, making it easy for you or your students to mark.
Also included is a follow-up resource which contains questions for strengthening understanding, as well as extending it.

A set of differentiated questions on evaluating functions.
There are three levels of difficulty:
substituting a value into a function (mild)
substituting an expression into a function (spicy)
substituting a binomial expression into a quadratic function (extra hot)
The resource includes a 'check-in' question. This can be attempted on mini-whiteboards to give you and the students an idea of how well they understand the topic. The feedback from the question will help students to choose which set of questions to answer, and will tell you who needs extra support.
Full solutions are included, making it easy for you or your students to mark.
A set of differentiated questions on solving equations with functions. Students will need prior knowledge of solving linear and quadratic equations, as well as substituting expressions into a function.
There are three levels of difficulty:
mild questions, such as: f(x) = 5x + 1, solve f(x) = 2
spicy questions, such as: f(x) = 5x + 1, solve f(x + 1) = 2
extra hot questions, such as: f(x) = 5x + 1, g(x) = 2x, solve f(x + 1) = g(3x)
