Welcome to the GCSE Maths course for parents or guardians of GCSE Maths students and GCSE Maths students! In this course, we will delve into essential mathematical concepts that are crucial for mastering algebra and preparing for your exams.

Our curriculum will cover the following key topics:

1. Factorising Single Brackets: You will learn how to simplify expressions by taking common factors out of single brackets, enhancing your ability to manipulate algebraic expressions efficiently.

2. Factorising Quadratic Expressions When a=1: We will explore how to factorise quadratic expressions in the form of x²+bx+c. You will develop strategies to break these down into their factors.

3. Factorising Harder Quadratic Expressions: As we progress, we will tackle more complex quadratic expressions where a>1. This section will build on your existing knowledge and challenge you to apply your skills in new ways.

4. Difference of Two Squares: This topic will introduce you to the concept of the difference of two squares, a key algebraic identity that allows for quick factorisation of specific quadratic expressions.

5. Rearranging Formulas: Finally, we will focus on rearranging formulas to make specific variables the subject. This skill is essential for solving equations and applying mathematics in real-world situations.

For each topic we cover, there will be an assignment consisting of 6 practice questions. These assignments are designed to reinforce your understanding and provide you with the opportunity to apply what you’ve learned.

I encourage you to approach each topic with an open mind and a willingness to practice. With dedication and effort, you will gain confidence in your mathematical abilities and be well-prepared for your GCSE exams. Let’s get started!
