You’ll master OCR Higher Maths with clear lessons, exam-style practice, and step-by-step methods to aim for Grades 6–9.
You will learn advanced number skills for OCR Higher: fractions, decimals, percentages, standard form, bounds, and complex calculations. You’ll focus on applying accurate methods in multi-step problems, improving your checking, and gaining method marks in exams.
You will build confidence with algebra by simplifying expressions, expanding and factorising, solving equations and inequalities, and rearranging formulas. You’ll learn how to show clear working, avoid common mistakes, and tackle multi-step exam questions using GCSE AQA Higher methods.
You will learn how to read and draw graphs accurately, including straight-line graphs, gradients and intercepts. You’ll use tables of values, plot points correctly, and interpret graphs in real-life contexts. You’ll practise exam-style questions and show clear working to gain method marks.
You will learn to use ratio and proportion to compare quantities, share amounts, and solve real-life problems. You’ll work with direct and inverse proportion, use unit rates and percentages, and interpret rates of change. You’ll practise exam-style questions with clear methods and checking.
You will develop strong geometry skills by working with angles, shapes, area and volume, and accurate measurement. You’ll use Pythagoras’ theorem and trigonometry, apply circle and compound measures, and solve multi-step exam questions with clear diagrams, units and full working.
You will learn when to use Pythagoras’ theorem and when to use trigonometry in right-angled triangles. You’ll calculate missing sides and angles using sin, cos and tan, round appropriately, and solve exam-style problems with clear diagrams, units and working.
You will learn to calculate and interpret probability and analyse data confidently. You’ll use sample space diagrams, probability rules and expected frequency, then apply statistics skills such as averages, range, charts, cumulative frequency and scatter graphs.
