Foundation revision checklist: build reliable methods first
A grade 4 revision plan should begin with the questions you can learn to answer consistently. Use a practice attempt to identify which methods are secure, which are slow and which you cannot yet start. This checklist is revision guidance, not a prediction that these topics will appear in a particular November paper.
- Number: fractions, decimals, percentages, negative numbers, rounding and estimation. Write down the operation before calculating.
- Ratio and proportion: sharing amounts, scaling recipes, best buys and unit conversions. Keep quantities in matching units.
- Algebra: substitution, simplifying expressions, solving linear equations and finding a sequence rule. Check a solution by substituting it back.
- Geometry: angle facts, perimeter, area, volume and reading scales. Label the diagram before choosing a formula.
- Data and probability: averages, charts, simple probabilities and interpreting information. Read axis labels and totals carefully.
A short percentage example to practise
Revision example: A jacket costs £48. Its price is reduced by 25%. What is the new price?
One quarter of £48 is £12. Subtract the reduction: £48 − £12 = £36. Another method is 0.75 × 48. A common mistake is giving £12, which is the discount rather than the new price. This example illustrates the method; it is not a claimed extract from the product PDFs.
Turn one practice paper into a resit revision plan
- Attempt: keep the solutions closed and follow the time and equipment instructions. Show working, including on questions you cannot finish.
- Review: compare methods with the solutions. Distinguish a missing method from an arithmetic slip or a misread question.
- Repair: choose three weaknesses and practise short questions on those topics before attempting another full paper.
- Retest: return to the missed questions without notes. Explain each step rather than memorising the previous answer.
For Paper 1, practise fraction arithmetic and written calculations without a calculator. For Papers 2 and 3, practise entering calculations accurately and estimating whether the answer is sensible. Check with your centre which formula sheet and equipment apply to your examination.
