About the Book
SMP Interact for GCSE Mathematics has been written specifically for the new linear and modular GCSE specifications. It has been extensively trialled and successfully used in schools, proving to be highly motivating for students. SMP Interact for GCSE Mathematics is a self-contained course which can be used by schools whether or not they have used SMP Interact at Key Stage 3. It is available at Foundation, Intermediate and Higher tiers. Coverage of a whole tier in one book provides a flexible course to fit with schemes of work and gives the opportunity for revision of previous topics. The practice books provide extra questions of similar standard to the students' book and are ideal as an inexpensive homework resource, or for extra practice in class. Also included are sets of mixed questions to support revision. The practice books follow the structure of the students' book.

Review :
"In twenty four years as a Head of Department this is the best scheme that I have seen." Head of Mathematics, Hastingbury Upper School, Bedfordshire "The practice books are very useful becuase they provide a source of similar standard questions that pupils will use in class, at home and for revision." Head of Mathematics Robert May's School, Basingstoke
