Apply Practice Books
Many students miss the 60% of marks for applying and analysing knowledge at GCSE. They struggle to figure out which concepts to use in unfamiliar situations. Past papers don't teach these strategies but Mastery Practice Books do:
- A proven 3-step approach: Detect, Recall and Solve
- Worked examples to recognise situations, choose knowledge and construct explanations
- Masses of guided practice to become confident with exam questions
The series covers all the key concepts set out in the 5-year plan, Blueprint (supported by AQA).
