Mathematics GCSE 2017 More content at both Foundation and Higher Tiers Shift in content from Higher to Foundation Move to more problem solving, reasoning & interpreting More examination time New grading structure

New topics New topics added to GCSE (for both tiers) New topics added to Foundation Tier (from Higher Tier) New topics added to Higher Tier (from A level)

Assessment objectives More emphasis on problem-solving, communication, proof and interpretation QWC will no longer be sign-posted with an *.

Assessment structure May … June … June … Foundation Grades 1-5 Half marks on each paper targeting Grades 1 to 3 (lower part) and other half at 3 (upper part) to 5 Higher Grades 4-9 (top %20 that miss a 4 will be given a grade 3) Half marks on each paper targeting grades 4-6 and other half at 7-9

In 2017 the same percentage that got a “C” in 2016 were awarded a grade 4. This year the Government have not said if this will remain the case. In 2017/18 and 2018/19 students aged 16-18 will be required to retake English and Maths where they fail to achieve a grade 4 at GCSE . In 2019/2020 this will rise to a grade 5

New grading scale (9-1) 1 is the lowest, anchored to grade G “The bottom of grade 1 will be aligned with the bottom of a G.”  9 is the highest, for the top 3% or so “For each examination, the top 20% of those who get grade 7 or above will get a grade 9 – the very highest performers.”  7 will be anchored to grade A “Broadly the same proportion of students will achieve a grade 7 and above as currently achieve an A and above.”  4 will be anchored to grade C “Broadly the same proportion of students will achieve a grade 4 and above as currently achieve a grade C and above.”  5 will be set between C and B “Grade 5 will be positioned in the top third of the marks for a current grade C, and bottom third of the marks for a current grade B.”

New grading scale (9-1)

An Example of the New Type of Question Current GCSE New GCSE Sarah bought a TV for £250 Three years later she sold it for £180 Work out her percentage loss .........................% (3)

An Example of the New Type of Question

What can you do to help? Be positive ‘I was never very good at Maths…’

How you can support Maths hasn’t changed too much- money, times tables, fractions, ratio, decimals are still all used. Talk about ‘everyday’ Maths Filling the missing amounts in a bank statement or invoice Changing money into different currencies Reading an electricity meter and calculating the bill Finding areas involving gardens, wallpaper, carpet, paint Planning a visit to Grandma given a bus timetable and when to be back for. Calculating best buys Working out postage & packing charges for online goods Act as a “Project Manager” - Help them to organise themselves Be positive & supportive Get your child to explain

How you can support RAG strategy Mocks are scheduled for November, January and March. After each your child will be provided with a RAG and these will also be emailed home with a text saying your child now has them If you know your email details are incorrect please let the school know so we can update them

Y:\Maths New\YEAR 11

How you can support Churchill papers After half term both foundation and higher papers will be emailed home every 2 weeks. These will also have the answers with them (a teacher will complete the paper first showing the workings out) These are not homework and it is not necessary that you print them out They will help give you some resources to help support your child (perhaps sit with them and complete a bit of the paper each night for example)

How you can support Revision Guides Use the index to navigate through Questions and answers in the book Use the hints Have them out in lessons and use them (they should not look new by the time of your exam!)
