Now available for the seven most popular options, these foundation versions help make the GCSE content more accessible and are designed to be easy-to-use alongside the core textbooks in a mixed ability classroom and are also ideal for home learning.

How have we made them more accessible?

• We’ve reduced the level of the language to remove difficult words or phrases when possible. All the titles have been reviewed for reading age by a language expert.
• Easy-to-use alongside the core GCSE textbooks with content covered on each spread matched so you can use both versions together in a mixed ability classroom.
• More of the difficult words that students need to know are explained in key terms boxes, with definitions repeated through the books to reinforce learning.
• We've made our explanations more accessible for students targeting a grade 5 or below.
• Where possible, we’ve replaced paragraphs of text with easy-to-understand flow diagrams, mind maps or charts so there is significantly less text on the pages for students to tackle.
• The level of demand in the activities has been reduced and some of the harder ones removed.
• Exam tips have been re-focused to offer advice so that students of all abilities can secure as many marks as possible.
• The ‘Preparing for your exam’ chapters have been thoroughly rewritten with answers and commentary for students working towards a grade 5.
• New artworks have been added to make explanations more visual.
