I was delighted to present a session at #MathsConfOnline from Complete Mathematics, August 22. The resources discussed in the session are all provided here with some relevant additional content.
‘When presenting content and ideas to students we need ‘engaging explanations that are just right for the students: neither too short nor too long; neither too complex nor too simple.’

White Rose Secondary Resources including Complete Secondary Small Steps

AQA’s 90 maths problem solving questions supports the problem solving requirement (AO3) of GCSE Mathematics. Very useful summary lists link questions to process skills and to content areas. Answers are provided for all the problems and very helpful full commentaries are given on 30 of the problems.
AQA GCSE Examination Questions
AQA GCSE Assessment Resources, AQA legacy GCSE question papers

There is also a good deal of evidence that the use of worked examples can
be helpful in introducing new ideas (Booth et al., 2017; Sweller et al., 2019).
Particularly effective are ‘completion problems’ where students are given
partial solutions and required to complete them. These can help students to
focus on the examples but also manage the difficulty level while retaining
authentic tasks

AQA – Bridging the gap

This set of AQA resources was originally designed to support teaching and learning for the cohorts of students who studied the 2007 Key Stage 3 Programme of Study and were preparing for the then new Mathematics GCSE (8300). The resources are still very useful for students in KS3-KS4.
KS3-4 Bridging the gap.
This series of termly tests covers Years 7, 8 and 9 and can be used to check understanding as well as showing younger students what GCSE papers look and feel like. Extension tests are included and analysers are available for all tests.
