This series is an excellent preparation for the linear and modular mathematics GCSE specifications offered by AQA, Edexcel and OCR. The books for the Foundation tier have been especially praised for helping raise the confidence of students, who as a result have a better understanding of the mathematics and a clearer self awareness of what they've learned. Foundation transition is for students who have followed any 'support' course in key stage 3. It prepares up to GCSE grade F and can be used to cover or revise basic topics before students start Foundation 1, the first of the two main books for the Foundation tier. To help teachers identify material that can be omitted by some students - or just dipped into for revision or to check competence - chapter sections estimated to be at levels 3 or 4 are labelled as such. Each chapter is clear and thorough with ideas developed and highlighted by key worked examples and discussion points. Plentiful built-in practice includes past exam questions. A comprehensive contents description and index make navigation easy. Answers are provided.
