I have been a teacher for over 20 years - all the stuff I upload has been tried and tested in my classroom. I don't mind a discussion on Twitter too where I also share new resources. I now have a personal website: https://andylutwyche.com/

Working up from simple fraction of a number to adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing mixed numbers with everything in between, including a “Show that” question which always seems to confuse some.
This takes students from fairly straightforward area and perimeter questions (trapeziums, circles etc) through compound shapes and on to cones, frustums and hemispheres including finding the height in terms of the radius for a cone. I have tried to cover all bases with it including density and capacity problems.
This leads students through basic angle facts through parallel lines, polygons and then onto forming and solving equations or writing angles using algebra.
This takes you through basic indices then on to fractional and negative indices covering all the skills required allowing students to understand how they all link up to reach the most challenging question types.
Taking students through the skills required to solve problems involving surds. There are questions that students will need to do without a calculator as the calculator will give them the fully simplified solution.
Leading students through the skills required for proportion problems at GCSE level including substitution, solving equations and order of operations before asking some proportion questions. I didn’t have room for graphs I’m afraid, but that could be a discussion from the questions.
This takes students through all the skills required to solve simultaneous equations graphically (only linear graphs), by elimination and by substitution including one linear and one non-linear up to GCSE level. Work from the bottom building the skills up to the most complex style of question.
This is around 580 slides including notes, worked examples and questions for students to do on all topics in Edexcel’s Year 13/Book 2 including all the differentiation, integration, trigonometric identities, functions, logarithms/exponentials work as well as everything else. examples and solutions are animated so that each step can be looked at and discussed as is your and/or your students’ preference. Fully editable obviously. Now without differentiating arcsin, arccos and arctan and a rearranged series chapter.
A colleague suggested using Amazon reviews of albums to calculate averages from frequency tables/bar graphs, so I did. Hopefully it is useful. I have chosen albums that have similar ratings for a reason, plus the students will rip my music taste apart (little do they know that my music taste is far superior to theirs…).
This covers from simple finding pairs of integers up to completing the square, including completing the square and the quadratic formula. I will put solving graphically on a another one as there wasn’t room here.
This takes students through the skills required to answer vectors questions and some vectors questions from adding vectors to describing routes to proof.
I have concentrated on the algebra rather than linking to graphs of functions as I’m not sure at GCSE that the graphs are overly helpful for solving function notation problems; I will eventually get on to transforming functions which will tackle this (size could be an issue in the format though). This goes from simple function machines, through substitution, rearranging formulae and links them to functions questions. This started off as a request from a former colleague who bemoaned the lack of function notation resources, which is a fair point at present, I think.
