Useful links for Maths Enrichment

These sites contain helpful hints and tips about Maths, including some great puzzles and problem solving activities to help you hone your numeracy skills.

Nrich - Specialists in Rich Mathematics - This website has a difference focus every month, with problems and puzzles that match that theme. You can email them with your solutions. For September, their focus is Communicating and Reflecting.

Minus Plus Project - This website, originally created for schools in the Liverpool area, contains hints, tips, worksheets and games, along with a list of useful Maths related websites.

GCSE Maths Revision Site - This website is specifically aimed at those taking the higher tier Maths paper (there is no longer an intermediate paper available), with topic specific revision notes and a forum to ask questions if you are really stuck!

Dr Zargle's GCSE Answers - This website sells past papers and exemplar answers to go with them, either via download or on a CD. Their testimonials are excellent.

BBC News Maths Test - Maybe this is one for the parents! How would you fare on a GCSE Maths paper today? Test yourself with this seven question quiz. (I scored 6/7 - but two of those were very lucky guesses!)
