KS4 maths worksheets – handy resources for teachers

Accurate and easily accessible KS4 maths worksheets can help with everything from topic introductions and lesson starters to focused revision and exam preparation.

In this short guide, we take a look at what makes an effective worksheet and highlight a few platforms offering GCSE maths worksheets and printable resources for both foundation and higher tiers.

What makes a good KS4 maths worksheet?

Not all worksheets are equally useful, particularly at Key Stage 4 where students’ needs can vary widely. The most effective GCSE maths worksheets are likely to balance clarity, challenge and curriculum relevance, while remaining easy to adapt for different classes.

When selecting resources, useful features to look out for include:
• Clear differentiation between foundation and higher maths
• GCSE practice questions that reflect current exam styles
• GCSE topic worksheets focusing on specific skills or methods
• Printable materials that work well on paper as well as digitally
• Curriculum-aligned maths resources to support structured revision
