What does the course cover? The Programme of Study and curriculum links
The Wolsey Hall Year 9 Maths course follows the National Curriculum for England at Key Stage 3 and the Lower Secondary Maths course as a whole (Years 7-9) meets all the requirements of the Cambridge Lower Secondary Curriculum.
We have ensured that all of the National Curriculum outcomes are covered in the course and the table below provides an overview of how the Wolsey Hall course can be mapped to the Mastering Mathematics Book 3 coursebook and to the National Curriculum for England and the Cambridge Lower Secondary Maths curriculum.
Note The Lower Secondary Maths course as a whole (Years 7-9) meets all the requirements of the Cambridge Lower Secondary Curriculum.
You may want to print out this overview of the course Download overview of the course and refer to it as you progress through the course. Do also bear in mind that:
- Before Module One, there is a Welcome call with your tutor.
- At the end of Module Four, there is a mid-course review.
- At the end of Module Nine, there is an end-of-course review.
- After the end-of-course review, there is a final test (printed out and taken like an assignment, to check their progress and see if they are ready to continue their studies).

8Ni.05 Use positive and zero indices, and the index laws for multiplication and division. 8Ae.06 Understand that a situation can be represented either in words or as an equation. Move between the two representations and solve the equation (integer or fractional coefficients, unknown on either or both sides). 9Ae.03 Understand that a situation can be represented either in words or as an algebraic expression, and move between the two representations (including squares, cubes and roots). 9Ae.04 Understand that a situation can be represented either in words or as a formula (including squares and cubes) and manipulate using knowledge of inverse operations to change the subject of a formula. 8As.04 Understand that a situation can be represented either in words or as a linear function in two variables (of the form y = mx + c) and move between the two representations. 8As.05 Use knowledge of coordinate pairs to construct tables of values and plot the graphs of linear functions, where y is given explicitly in terms of x (y = mx + c). 8As.06 Recognise that equations of the form y = mx + c correspond to straight-line graphs, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept (integer values of m). 9As.05 Use knowledge of coordinate pairs to construct tables of values and plot the graphs of linear functions, including where y is given implicitly in terms of x (ax + by = c), and quadratic functions of the form y = x^2 ± a. |

7Nf.01 Recognise that fractions, terminating decimals and percentages have equivalent values. 7Nf.05 Recognise percentages of shapes and whole numbers, including percentages less than 1 or greater than 100. 8Nf.05 Understand percentage increase and decrease, and absolute change. 9Nf.05 Understand compound percentages. 7Nf.10 Use knowledge of equivalence to simplify and compare ratios (same units). 8Nf.09 Understand and use the relationship between ratio and direct proportion. 7Nf.11 Understand how ratios are used to compare quantities, to divide an amount into a given ratio with two parts. 8Nf.11 Understand how ratios are used to compare quantities, to divide an amount into a given ratio with two or more parts. 7Nf.09 Understand and use the unitary method to solve problems involving ratio and direct proportion in a range of contexts. |

7Gg.10 Identify reflective symmetry and order of rotational symmetry of 2D shapes and patterns. 7Gp.03 Use knowledge of translation of 2D shapes to identify the corresponding points between the original and the translated image, without the use of a grid. 7Gp.04 Reflect 2D shapes on coordinate grids, in a given mirror line (𝑥- or 𝑦-axis), recognising that the image is congruent to the object after a reflection. 7Gp.05 Rotate shapes 90º and 180º around a centre of rotation, recognising that the image is congruent to the object after a rotation. 8Gp.03 Translate points and 2D shapes, recognising that the image is congruent to the object after a translation. 8Gp.04 Reflect 2D shapes and points in a given mirror line on or parallel to the 𝑥- or 𝑦-axis, or 𝑦= ±𝑥 on coordinate grids. Identify a reflection and its mirror line. 8Gp.05 Understand that the centre of rotation, direction of rotation and angle are needed to identify and perform rotations. 9Gp.03 Transform points and 2D shapes by combinations of reflections, translations and rotations. 9Gp.04 Identify and describe a transformation (reflections, translations, rotations and combinations of these) given an object and its image. 9Gp.05 Recognise and explain that after any combination of reflections, translations and rotations the image is congruent to the object. |

7Gp.06 Understand that the image is mathematically similar to the object after enlargement. Use positive integer scale factors to perform and identify enlargements. 7Gg.02 Understand that if two 2D shapes are congruent, corresponding sides and angles are equal. 9Gp.06 Enlarge 2D shapes, from a centre of enlargement (outside, on or inside the shape) with a positive integer scale factor. Identify an enlargement, centre of enlargement and scale factor. 7Sp.03 Identify all the possible mutually exclusive outcomes of a single event, and recognise when they are equally likely to happen. 7Sp.04 Understand how to find the theoretical probabilities of equally likely outcomes. 8Sp.01 Understand that complementary events are two events that have a total probability of 1. 8Sp.02 Understand that tables, diagrams and lists can be used to identify all mutually exclusive outcomes of combined events (independent events only). 8Sp.03 Understand how to find the theoretical probabilities of equally likely combined events. 9Sp.01 Understand that the probability of multiple mutually exclusive events can be found by summation and all mutually exclusive events have a total probability of 1. 9Sp.03 Understand how to find the theoretical probabilities of combined events. |
