Ofqual sets what GCSE Maths covers and how much each topic area counts, and it's the same at every exam board. Roughly how the marks divide across each tier:
| Topic area | Foundation | Higher |
|---|---|---|
| Number | 25% | 15% |
| Algebra | 20% | 30% |
| Ratio, proportion and rates of change | 25% | 20% |
| Geometry and measures | 15% | 20% |
| Probability and statistics | 15% | 15% |
The maths is the same at every exam board: Ofqual sets the content and the topic weightings. What differs is the papers, so practising with Edexcel papers matters. Every tutor on this page lists Edexcel for GCSE Maths.
Foundation covers grades 1 to 5 and Higher grades 4 to 9. Higher suits students aiming above a 5; Foundation suits a secure 4 or 5. A tutor can usually recommend a tier after a lesson or two.
Edexcel publishes past papers and mark schemes on its own website: https://qualifications.pearson.com/en/support/support-topics/exams/past-papers.html
Each tutor sets a flat price per hour-long lesson, from £40. You pay per lesson when you book, with no membership or agency fee.
