Our interactive Scheme of Work is designed to help you save time by supporting your planning
and teaching for Key Stage 3 Maths and the Edexcel GCSE (9-1) Mathematics qualification.
This short video will give you a whistle-stop tour of its key features.
To create a bespoke Scheme of Work for your school, first give your scheme a name. Now
select the course you plan to deliver. For example, if you are teaching a 5-year curriculum
of Key Stage 3 and GCSE, then select 11-16 Maths 5 year curriculum.
Choose the course level. This will be one of three levels for Key Stage 3, and either
Foundation or Higher for GCSE. Choose the length of your course. The one-year
option for GCSE is for teaching it as a resit. Then click Next.
This then generates a bespoke Scheme of Work for your approach, by breaking all the content
up into manageable Units and organising them over the teaching period you have specified.
The Scheme of Work also suggests how long to spend on each Unit, as well as clearly
highlighting all the prerequisite knowledge. However, this is just a starting point and
the Scheme of Work is totally flexible to the way you want to teach.
Change the time allocated to each Unit. Drag and drop Units to rearrange the ordering.
Prerequisite knowledge will be flagged so that you can clearly see any potential issues
with the teaching order you create. Once you are happy with the Scheme of Work,
click Save. You can now share it with your colleagues and start using it to support your teaching.
You can easily navigate your Scheme of Work
with the Scheme explorer on the left. This enables you to go directly to a specific year
and half term. You can tag different teachers to allocate
specific units to them. Clicking on each Unit will give you all the
relevant information you need, as well as links to Topic tests and Mark schemes specifically
written for Edexcel GCSE (9-1) Mathematics. These are available free of charge as part
of the interactive Scheme of Work. Drilling down further into the content will
give you more specific free support, such as teaching ideas, possible success criteria,
common misconceptions, and opportunities for reasoning and problem-solving at GCSE.
You can access resources for all of your course by purchasing Pearson’s ActiveLearn Digital Service.
The Service, which also includes progression and assessment materials, integrates
seamlessly with the interactive Scheme of Work, allowing you to click directly through
to your purchased resources. For more information about the interactive
