This simple looking webpage is capable of generating a list of past exam questions filtered by topic. The professional development we provide can support that but we really have got to do something about teacher supply. There are resources at different difficulty levels (First Steps, Strengthen and Extend) and answers are available too. But Charlie Stripp, director for the National Centre for Excellence in Teaching Mathematics, added it was “probably a mistake” schools with few specialists prioritise GCSE classes over key stage 3.

We started with language learning because there was this humongous need around the world to learn English, which can immediately increase your income potential, but we've always wanted to teach other things," Mr von Ahn says.
