Need a structured Year 11 homework programme that consolidates Foundation GCSE content without becoming a random collection of revision questions? This Core booklet provides 12 ready-to-set homework and revision assignments for Half Term 3, each designed for approximately 30 minutes and supported by complete answers and mark schemes.

The booklet revisits fractions and FDP conversions, percentages, linear equations, sequences, linear and quadratic graphs, angles, perimeter and area, ratio and proportion, and single and combined probability. Planned retrieval and interleaving bring earlier number, algebra, geometry, ratio, probability and statistics knowledge back at purposeful intervals.

Each homework follows a consistent six-part structure:
IGNITE — retrieval and fluency
BUILD — current methods
DETECT — misconceptions
PERFORM — GCSE-style application
STRETCH — reasoning and depth
REFLECT — metacognition

Questions use deliberate variation and target recurring errors highlighted in GCSE examiner commentary and assessment guidance. DETECT tasks make commonly examiner-identified misconceptions explicit, while PERFORM and STRETCH retain worthwhile application, critique and reasoning at an appropriate independent Core standard.

Complete answers include methods, mark allocations and examiner-style warnings, making the booklet suitable for self-marking, departmental homework routines, intervention or revision. The final cumulative Mastery Checkpoint provides a useful low-stakes assessment of the half term.

Pupils should write answers and working in an exercise book or on separate paper; the booklet does not provide full writing space.

What’s included:
• 39-page Year 11 Foundation Core PDF
• 11 weekly homeworks plus cumulative Mastery Checkpoint
• Approximately 30 minutes per assignment
• Complete answers and mark schemes
• Teacher guidance, revision overview and misconception map
