Revised in August 2018 following previous versions, the technical guidance describes the purpose of the Core Maths qualifications as, ‘Core Maths qualifications should consolidate and build on students’ mathematical understanding and develop further mathematical understanding and skills in the application of maths...
These fifteen frequently asked questions contain a range of information for schools and teachers considering offering Core Maths. Questions cover basic information on the qualification, university and employer support, the demand of the course, the benefits of studying Core Maths and advice for non-mathematics...
David, Paul, Amir and Katy were among the very first students to sit the new Core Maths examinations. The case study is based on individual interviews carried out with the 4 students from different centres in England, who each completed the Core Maths course in June 2016.
It is hoped that this case study...
Discover the experiences of one Assistant Head of Mathematics responsible for the delivery of Core Maths within their College, while also having the role of Core Maths Lead for her local cluster.
She has, like many teachers, found Core Maths to be a very different teaching experience compared to other...
In November 2015 a total of 182 centres delivering Core Maths , including schools, colleges and UTCs, completed a short survey on how they integrated the course into their timetabling provision.
The survey asked questions about the time allocated to and the arrangements for teaching Core Maths. Further...
Two videos on digital technology for Core Maths by Douglas Bulter. The first video summarises a task group report on technology and the second looks at ‘Finding data from interesting sources’.
Digitial technology for Core Maths 1
In this resource students deal with the problem of administering doses of a prescribed drug so that the body does not have too little or an excess of the drug. An understanding of half life is required. Students do not need to use more complicated formulae for...
This research task involves calculation, estimation and online research. Students are asked to compare the cost of building a rocket to go to the Moon with the cost of building a stack of pound coins to reach the Moon.
Cost to the Moon: worksheet
This handout includes images and...
This unplugged activity uses a large model of a face, operated by several children working together, to teach how ‘emotion’ can be expressed by robots following simple rules. These rules are expressed as IF, THEN, ELSE, statements which, when...
The objectives of this activity are to develop a chain of reasoning and to understand the application of mathematical induction to proving divisibility. Students are given a set of cards. The cards have to be arranged in such a manner that they form the solution to a problem together with justification for their...
At Bishop Challoner Catholic College in Birmingham, a STEM project entitled “Rockets in Motion” took place during the autumn term of the 2010-2011 academic year. The project ran through a series of after-school sessions led jointly by the science, technology and...
This activity from the Nuffield Foundation shows students how to use a recurrence relation to work out how long it takes to pay off a credit card loan and how much it costs. They can use a graphic calculator or spreadsheet to do the working. After working through the given example, where a customer spends £1250 and...
This resource explains the check digit algorithm invented by Hans Luhn. This algorithm is widely used for both credit and debit cards to check small errors in the input of card numbers, using the final digit on the card as a check.
The instructions clearly show how to apply the algorithm, and invites...
These eighteen assignments and a teachers' guide, from the Association for Science Education (ASE) aim to encourage non-scientists to embrace a little science. The aim is to increase student's skills whilst quashing a few "science is boring" stereotypes. All assignments have been written to cover a variety of non-...
Students often seem uncomfortable when confronted with a science teacher talking about mathematics in a science lesson or a design and technology teacher talking about science in a design and technology lesson.
