In order to support students with their revision for the summer 2024 GCSEs and A-levels our secondary English, maths and science specialist advisers will be offering parents and schools a range of support to help ensure that students realise their potential in next summer’s exams.
All the 2024 remote revision sessions have now taken place but we are pleased to announce that we are offering them as on demand sessions.
Please be aware that if you attended or purchased a ticket for one of the live revision masterclasses in February – March that these are the same recordings and not new content.

Each recording is 50 minutes long.

Mathematics revision workbooks for students
Designed to encourage independent working, these four revision GCSE Maths workbooks have been written to go alongside students’ work and revision in school. They will work well with any of the exam board GCSE (9-1) specifications and can be used in the classroom and / or at home. The workbooks aim to support students in making the best use of the revision time. The topics selected appear frequently in GCSE papers - students who work carefully and successfully through a workbook will have a good chance of achieving the target grade for that book.
Some students may also wish to work through a lower-grade book, to remind them of key areas they may not have studied recently.
Each full colour book costs £7.95 (plus postage and packing) and can be ordered from the HFL Shop by both parents and schools.
The graded maths revision workbooks were brilliant. Really helpful for our targeted grade intervention. The students and intervention tutor commented to me about how clear and accessible they were so thank you.

Maths 'A'-level
Our secondary Maths adviser lead 16 topic-based ‘A’-level Maths online workshops during the Easter holidays.
Each workshop summarised the main learning points and showed how they can be applied to examination-style questions. Students were encouraged to participate by answering questions via polls or online chat, engaging actively with the examples used, and taking part in other short revision activities.
The workshops were aimed at those students targeting grades up to and including Grade B. Students aiming for A* and A grades could attend to consolidate their skills; however, the content of the workshops was not specifically aimed at these students.
Each workshop was 60 minutes long.
These workshops have now taken place for 2024. There are no recordings available for these sessions.
