Finding reliable sources of year 8 maths worksheets can make a real difference to your Key Stage 3 lesson planning, homework setting and revision recommendations.

From printable PDFs for fluency practice to more structured KS3 maths worksheets aligned to schemes of learning, there’s no shortage of material available.

In this short guide, we compare some well-used platforms, highlighting where you can find printable year 8 maths worksheets, what topics they cover and what to watch out for when choosing resources for your classes.

MME Revise

MME Revise is a popular and credible revision platform, with a dedicated KS3 section that makes it a useful source of year 8 maths resources. The maths worksheet PDFs on the website are free to download, making them suitable for classroom use, homework or independent study.
 
The content is skills-focused and works well for topic consolidation or revision, particularly for students who benefit from structured, exam-style questions.
 
Specific topics covered in the platform’s KS3 maths worksheet collection include: 
Decimals
Powers and roots
• Linear graphs, including y = mx + c
Venn diagrams
Introductory trigonometry
 Most worksheets come with answers, which helps save time when setting or reviewing work. While MME Revise is often associated with GCSE preparation, many of its KS3 materials are well pitched for activities like year 8 algebra practice, equations and foundational problem-solving.

TES

TES is a long-established and well-known platform that most teachers will already be familiar with. It hosts a large library of KS3 maths worksheets, including many suitable year 8 maths revision sheets, but it does require more searching than some other platforms.
 
You’ll need to register for a free account to download resources and use filters to find year 8-specific and free materials.
 
With a bit of sorting, it’s possible to find free worksheets on topics such as: 
Ratios
Cartesian coordinates
Probability
 An important point to note is that TES resources are largely created and uploaded by individual teachers and education professionals. While this means many worksheets are classroom-tested and practical, the methods and approaches used can vary.
 
With this in mind, it’s worth checking resources carefully to ensure they match your students’ needs, curriculum coverage and expectations for presentation and progression.

White Rose Education

White Rose Education is a widely used and trusted provider of maths resources in UK schools. Its KS3 materials are closely aligned to curriculum sequencing and emphasise fluency, reasoning and problem solving. However, access to worksheets does require a paid subscription.
 
For schools that are able to secure budget for this, White Rose offers a structured set of year 8 maths worksheets and other resources that can support teaching and home learning.
 
Topics covered include: 
• Coordinates and graphs
• Multiplying and dividing fractions
• Percentages
• Area, volume and density
 
These worksheets could prove particularly useful when departments want consistency across classes. Teachers looking for KS3 maths problem-solving tasks alongside more routine practice may find White Rose especially valuable.

Top Levels

Top Levels is a less established platform compared to some of the others listed here, but it does offer a clearly organised and free-to-access collection of printable year 8 maths worksheets. All resources are available as downloadable PDFs, which makes them quick to use and easy to share.
 
The selection is more limited, but it covers several core year 8 topics, including:
• Area and perimeter
• Simple linear equations
• Simultaneous equations
• Mean, median, mode and range
 This makes Top Levels a useful supplementary source, particularly when you need year 8 averages worksheets, statistics practice or straightforward algebra questions at short notice.
 
As with any smaller platform, you may want to review the worksheets carefully to ensure they meet your own standards and align with lesson objectives.
