  1. GCSE Mathematics for OCR Linear • From September 2006 GCSE Maths will be offered at two tiers only, Foundation and Higher. • We already have a strong reputation for our publishing for GCSE Mathematics for OCR. • With our brand new resources, endorsed by OCR for use with the OCR GCSE Mathematics Linear Two-Tier specification,making the switch to a two tier GCSE will be straightforward for both you and your school.

  2. Why new resources? • The changes to the specification are not simply a case of merging Intermediate content into Foundation and Higher content • For the first time you will be teaching Foundation students up to a grade C • Foundation students will need access to grade C material, and will need more guidance towards it – old intermediate text books may be off-putting and contain extra material that just isn’t required • Higher students will need to be exposed to a wider range of Maths than previously

  3. Why Hodder Murray? • Our brand new series of resources has been written specifically by experienced and successful authors for the new OCR Linear two tier specification, providing complete support for both teachers and students alike. • Our resources are endorsed by OCR for use with the OCR GCSE Mathematics Linear Two-Tier specification.

  4. To fully support the new two-tier linear specification, GCSE Mathematics for OCR Linear has a dedicated Student’s Book, Teacher’s Resource Book, Assessment Pack and Homework Book for each tier. Bespoke digital resources for both students and teachers support learning and teaching throughout the course and include: Interactive Investigations, Interactive Assessment and our GCSE Mathematics Personal Tutor. How are we supporting you?
