Complete and authoritative coverage of the new syllabus

  • New content, such as Networks, Infographics and Simulation in Stage 5, is delivered in a logical and manageable way to encourage deep understanding. 

  • This content is supported by carefully graded questions, linked examples and new Working Mathematically investigative tasks in an uncluttered layout. 

  • Syllabus references are included with the Learning Intentions for each section, along with Key Terms and Key Ideas, so that teachers can link content to the syllabus to be sure they are covering all required outcomes. 

  • Careful consideration has been given to supporting the delivery of flexible Pathways in Stage 5, and includes clear labelling of optional Advanced content in Core & Standard Paths, references to other Path material not covered in a particular course, access to other Cambridge HOTmaths learning materials and discrete working programs throughout each course.

An approach to teaching and learning that you’ve come to trust

NEW diagnostic assessment tool
 to help identify and address gaps in your students’ knowledge

Create your own family of tests for a designated unit of work from our large bank of questions.

Choose your questions from a Textbook view or Syllabus view. Cover one or more textbook lessons or syllabus outcomes, and drill down to specific Mathematical Skills to see the course at a granular level. 

Use the intuitive reports to identify 
gaps in knowledge. 

Set the suggested follow-up work to help students improve their performance. 

Let the system generate a post-test that matches the skills you have covered in your test family. 

View students’ performance and growth, and export the data as needed. 

New projectable lesson summaries for each section

  • New targeted skillsheets are included for every section and focus on a single skill or small set of closely-related skills. Each skillsheet includes between eight and ten questions, with a related worked example from the textbook listed for each question. One optional problem-solving question is also included. 

  • Fluency questions have been restructured to give students more opportunities to embed core skills before attempting harder questions, ensuring a greater chance of success as the questions increase in complexity.

More features for teachers:

  • A NEW set of PowerPoint documents for classroom presentation include the Lesson Starter, Key Ideas, Building Understanding questions (for Stage 4 and Stage 5 Core & Advanced/Extension Paths), Worked Examples and Now You Try questions for each section.

  • Teachers can use these presentations to guide lessons, focus students’ attention and promote class or group discussion before students work on exercise questions  
  • A proven teaching and learning formula combines logical and manageable topic development, graded questions, linked step-by-step Worked Examples, key point summaries and exam-style questions.

  • Working programs discretely embedded in every exercise offer Building, Progressing and Mastering pathways through each text to provide more support for differentiation.

  • Consolidating and Extending topics are clearly marked to assist with course planning.
