Edexcel GCSE maths worksheets by grade
215 free worksheets for Edexcel GCSE maths, from grade 1 to grade 9, with 3,007 original exam-style questions. Every topic has a printable worksheet, an answers sheet and a solutions sheet written out by hand, step by step, the way a tutor would write it next to you.
Pearson Edexcel GCSE Mathematics (1MA1) is sat as three papers of 1 hour 30 minutes, 80 marks each. Paper 1 is non-calculator and Papers 2 and 3 allow a calculator. Foundation covers grades 1 to 5 and Higher covers grades 4 to 9.
Our grades follow the Edexcel grade descriptors, so the grade on each worksheet is a good guide to where that topic sits on an Edexcel paper. Grades 4 and 5 appear on both tiers, which is why those topics show for Foundation and Higher.
All three exam boards teach the same GCSE maths content, set by the Department for Education, so every topic below is on the Edexcel specification. The difference is in the style of the papers, not in what you need to know. The same sheets work for AQA and OCR too.
Open a topic to answer the questions online for an instant score, or print it for class or homework. Free to use, print and share, with no account needed.
