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/

These are levelled/graded worksheets covering the GCSE curriculum and split up into topics. Each individual sheet builds from the most straightforward elements of the topic through to the most challenging. At the top of each sheet is a “RAG” table for students to complete before and/or after completing each section; every statement in a RAG table is connected to a section in the sheet. I have produced these for two reasons: firstly to allow my Year 11 students to focus their revision on the areas that will make it most efficient and secondly to have a bank of worksheets available that students can differentiate themselves for any GCSE topic within lessons. These are the Word files to allow for editing. Answers are included. Updated December 2018.

Six "spiders" on six different sets of angle properties starting with "on a line", "around a point", "triangles", "polygons", "parallel lines" and "circle theorems". The final two require students to name the property used and I have left a couple of the parallel lines with the answers filled in so that students can draw their own diagram. The activity is designed to create discussion.
This set of 4 "spiders" takes students through generating a sequence from an nth term, to finding the nth term of an arithmetic sequence to working with some fairly straight forward quadratic and cubic sequences. The concept is designed to encourage discussion.
Two sets of "explosions" involving prime factors and using them to calculate LCM and HCF. There are some where students are given the two numbers and have to find prime factors, HCF and LCM; there are others where students are given the prime factors and have to find the numbers, HCF and LCM; there are some where students are given the HCF and LCM and need to find the numbers and their prime factors. It it is designed to lead to discussion.

Four sets of sequences for students to match with their nth terms. there is always one extra sequence which doesn't match and this requires students to find the nth term. It's designed to generate discussion. The five sets get increasingly difficult and are all arithmetic until the final two sets which are all quadratic sequences, the first lot being relatively easy, the second not so.
I've been asked a few times what these are like so thought I'd put one of each "Number", "Algebra", "Geometry" and "Data" out there for people to peruse at their leisure. These are worksheets that can be used for either revision, homework or those students who have missed work with each containing a QR code that will scan to a short tutorial video.
These are homework sheets which also contain a QR code to a tutorial video if the students require. I have used similar before and parents (and children) have found the QR code very useful and should avoid the “I don’t get it” excuse as they can get help via the QR code. The tutorials have been made using the app Explain Everything if you are interested. Topics covered include averages from frequency tables, grouped frequency including estimating the mean etc, cumulative frequency and box plots, histograms, sets, Venn diagrams, two-way tables and tree diagrams. Each comes with answers too.
This is a second attempt to upload these as there was a problem with the first (no idea what and not of my doing!) and I have tried converting to PDF to negate any issues. Anyway, there are two sets of arithmetic to match with their nth terms, plus two nth terms that don't match for students to generate themselves.

The tutorials have been made using the app Explain Everything if you are interested. Topics covered include bearings, locus, circle theorems, Pythagoras and trigonometry (right-angled and non-right-angled), vectors and surface and and volume of spheres, cones, frustums, pyramids. Each comes with answers too.
I use these as a break from the "past paper drudgery" in the run up to exams. The questions are taken from past papers (amended in some cases). The idea is to answer each question fully then scan the QR code linked to the correct answer to form a code. Each QR code (correct or incorrect to avoid "cheating") scans to a song or artist that contains a number or colour, so this generates the code.
These are an attempt to break from the monotony of past papers in the run up to exam season. I have taken 2 or 4 (depending on whether they will fit on a page!) questions from past papers and put them on one sheet; I will photocopy onto A3 for students to have a go in groups and discuss. The aims/rules etc are all listed if you wish to follow them and hopefully they all make sense. I have also provided answers.

Six matching activities that get increasingly harder. Not all match which means that "process of elimination" cannot be used by students. This involves listing integers based upon an inequality and solving them too. This is an activity designed to encourage discussion. Now with quadratic inequalities slides! Errors corrected (I hope).
This is a booklet of over 40 worksheets that can be used for either revision, homework or those students who have missed work with each containing a QR code that will scan to a short tutorial video. It is designed to cover the entire GCSE geometry curriculum. I have tried to order the sheets in a logical way, although not necessarily in "difficulty" order, the topics are grouped. Answers are provided.
This is a booklet of 25 worksheets that can be used for either revision, homework or those students who have missed work with each containing a QR code that will scan to a short tutorial video. It is designed to cover the entire GCSE algebra curriculum. I have tried to order the sheets in a logical way, although not necessarily in "difficulty" order, the topics are grouped. These are the Word files so they can be edited to your own preference.
This was an idea I had in on the way to work one morning - Clive makes mistakes on his homework and you need to correct them, explaining the mistake he's made in each case. I intend to use this as a plenary or starter to check learning etc. They should create discussion too. There are 5 different mistakes to correct.
