Foundation ActEd Course

What is the Foundation ActEd Course?

The Foundation ActEd Course (FAC) is designed to help you to refresh and improve your mathematical skills in preparation for the CT subjects and is recommended by the profession.

FAC covers all of the mathematical skills that are required for the CT subjects. It is designed as a reference document and each chapter contains explanatory notes, examples and self-assessment questions to test understanding. There is also a summary test and a Question and Answer Bank providing extra practice.

A sample of the Course Notes and the full Syllabus for FAC can be downloaded at the end of this section.

Which Students will benefit from the Foundation ActEd Course?

Students with numerate degrees and a good memory of the topics covered in A-Level or Higher Level mathematics may not need to purchase this course. Many other students (particularly those with less numerate degrees or those whose maths is a little rusty) will benefit greatly from the study material and practice questions provided by FAC.

We have written an Initial Assessment to help you assess whether or not you would benefit from the Foundation ActEd Course. Students should attempt the Initial Assessment without reference to a textbook and should take around 60 minutes.

The Initial Assessment can be downloaded at the end of this section. Full solutions are available from ActEd.
