The course will be taught both at Foundation and Higher tier in a group setting (content is defined for each tier). General content headings are number, algebra, ratio proportion and rates of change, geometry and measure, probability, statistics. This academic year GCSE maths has changed: a new grading structure has been introduced, from Grade 9 - 1, replacing the old A* - G grades. Learners will take assessments in either the Foundation tier or the Higher tier. Foundation tier: grades 1 to 5. Higher tier: grades 4 to 9. The course will be taught as a linear course and certification is available in June 2017. The qualification consists of three equally-weighted written examination papers. All three papers must be at the same tier of entry and must be completed in June 2017. Each paper is 1 hour and 30 minutes long. Paper 1 is a non-calculator assessment and a calculator is allowed for Paper 2 and Paper 3. GCSE maths is expected to take between 120 and 140 hours of study -
