About this title

From the Back Cover

'Maths Plus' is designed for Key Stage 4 pupils working at or below grades F, G and U in mathematics. 'Maths Plus' is a full course in its own right, with exam board accreditation, but each course unit can be used individually to support specific needs in your class. The materials integrate maths with communication and IT skills, and so are 'key-skill friendly', as recommended by the Dearing Review of 16-19 qualifications. This makes them useful to a wide range of students, preparing them for progress towards GCSEs and NCVQ key skills later on.

• Two full-colour student books place maths in context: often vocational, always motivating.
• Carefully structured exercises prepare students for assessment.
• Full support for specialist and non-specialist maths teachers.
• Full certification: NEAB will award a Certificate of Achievement in National Curriculum Mathematics.

The 'Maths Plus' course and materials have been designed to motivate the least-able students and prepare them for progress towards GCSEs and NCVQ key skills later on.

The NEAB Certificate is 100% teacher assessed with awards possible at Pass, Merit and Distinction levels for passing 4, 8 or all 12 units.

The full National Curriculum model for Ma1 is used, allowing credit transfer of Ma1 achievement into GCSE Foundation tier.
