What?

GCSE+ Maths is an extensive weekly programme of enrichment for students in Years 9, 10 and 11. In all programmes you’ll be diving deep into fascinating maths. You’ll explore ideas that surprise you, intrigue you, and inspire you. You’ll make deep and unexpected connections between various GCSE topics and concepts. You’ll strengthen your understanding and improve your reasoning and develop your problem-solving skills. We will explore and expand upon some of the GCSE topics that are the foundations of AS or A2 Mathematics or Further Mathematics, so these sessions will not only support you in achieving a high GCSE grade, but will also prepare you well for further study.

If you like maths and think you might want to take A Level Mathematics, then GCSE+ may be for you.
