Key Stage 3 & 4 Mathematics

At Rebel Training Group, we offer mathematics tuition that aligns with the aims of the national curriculum, ensuring students develop fluency, reasoning, and problem-solving skills. Our tailored approach builds confidence and a love for mathematics while preparing students for academic success and beyond.

Our Skilled Mathematics Tutors

All of our mathematics tutors are passionate about making maths engaging and meaningful. They:

• Are trained to mentor students through challenges and foster confidence in their mathematical abilities.

• Use clear, practical explanations to make complex concepts accessible.

• Encourage a growth mindset, helping students persevere through challenging problems.

Our tutors ensure each student achieves the national curriculum's aims by focusing on fundamental mathematical skills, fostering reasoning abilities, and developing effective problem-solving strategies.

KS3: Building Mathematical Foundations

Our Key Stage 3 tuition lays a solid groundwork, aligning with the national curriculum's goals. We help students to:

• Become Fluent in Fundamentals: Gain proficiency in number operations, fractions, decimals, percentages, and basic algebra through varied and frequent practice.

• Reason Mathematically: Follow lines of enquiry, explore patterns and relationships, and articulate their reasoning using precise mathematical language.

• Solve Problems: Tackle routine and non-routine problems by breaking them into manageable steps and applying logical strategies.

Key topics include:

• Number and Place Value

• Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division

• Fractions, Decimals, and Percentages

• Measurement and Geometry (Properties of Shape, Position, and Direction)

• Introduction to Statistics and Algebra

By integrating written exercises with practical, hands-on tasks, our tutors engage students and make learning interactive and enjoyable.

KS4: Preparing for GCSE Success

Our Key Stage 4 Mathematics tuition is tailored to meet the requirements of the GCSE curriculum, supporting both Foundation and Higher-tier students.

Core Topics Covered:

• Number Skills: Mastery of advanced calculations, including ratios and proportional reasoning.

• Algebra: Simplifying expressions, solving equations, and graphing functions.

• Geometry and Trigonometry: Deepening understanding of shapes, transformations, and angles.

• Statistics and Probability: Analysing data and calculating probabilities with precision.

• Problem-Solving Strategies: Applying maths to real-world contexts and multi-step questions.

Specialised Higher Tier Support

For students taking the Higher Tier GCSE paper, we provide additional guidance in advanced topics to help them excel.

These include:

• Quadratic Equations and Algebraic Proofs

• Circle Theorems and Trigonometric Ratios

• Cumulative Frequency, Histograms, and Advanced Data Analysis

• Complex Problem-solving and Exam Techniques

This focused support enables students to achieve top grades and prepares them for further studies in mathematics or STEM fields.

Achieving the National Curriculum Aims

Our tuition is designed to align with the national curriculum, ensuring students:

• Fluently recall and apply knowledge: Through regular practice and revisiting concepts to secure understanding.

• Reason mathematically: By exploring patterns, forming generalisations, and presenting their findings.

• Solve problems effectively: Using their knowledge to approach routine and non-routine problems with increasing sophistication.

We also use a flexible coverage grid to ensure all curriculum areas are addressed, while encouraging creativity to adapt learning to individual needs.

Our Approach to Learning

Our teaching strategies make mathematics engaging and inclusive:

• Individualised Plans: Tailored strategies and tasks, supported by our Digital Learning Platform, to suit each student's unique strengths and areas for development.

• Interactive Lessons: Combining written tasks, practical activities, and digital tools to make learning dynamic.

• Growth Mindset: Encouraging resilience and confidence, transforming challenges into opportunities for growth.

  
  

Inclusive and Trauma-Informed Practices

We provide a safe, supportive learning environment where every student feels valued. Many of our tutors are trained in trauma-informed practices, enabling them to offer holistic support through our alternative provision or private tuition.

With a focus on building skills, confidence, and a passion for problem-solving, our Mathematics tuition equips students to excel in school and beyond.
