GCSE Mathematics knowledge mat
Every Percentage Is a Multiplier
Why a 10% rise followed by a 10% fall leaves you worse off, and how to get back to a price before the sale. Percentages as multipliers; ratio and proportion with a bar model; standard form, bounds, HCF and LCM, and surds; the formulae the DfE says you will not be given; a worked reverse percentage. Ten terms to define, a model answer on two successive reductions, and the misconceptions that cost marks. No photographs: every figure is drawn for the sheet.

Everything else this site has for Mathematics: Mathematics teaching resources

One landscape A4 page on one topic, built around one idea a class can hold onto. It carries percentages as multipliers, ratio and proportion, standard form, bounds, HCF and LCM, surds, the formulae you are not given and a worked reverse percentage — then the vocabulary, a worked exam-style answer and the misconceptions that cost marks.
No photographs, on purpose: there is no archival photograph of a percentage, and a stock image of a calculator would make the sheet worse. Every figure is drawn in code for the sheet (a bar model, a graph, a tree diagram), so nothing on it is licensed from anybody and nothing is AI-generated. Every claim is sourced to the DfE subject content and its Appendix of formulae, and nothing is reproduced from a past paper, a textbook or a specification.
Sold by subject: all four mathematics sheets for one price. A knowledge organiser stores a unit and is revised from afterwards; this is meant to be on the table while the work is happening.
