Welcome to national5maths.co.uk
This website is primarily a free Maths resource for pupils, adult learners, parents and teachers.
The resources below are aimed at S1 & S2 pupils studying CfE Levels 2/3/4. There is a strong focus on Numeracy – please see the ‘Numeracy Grids’ and ‘Lesson Starter’ sections below. The resources will provide excellent preparation for Maths in 3rd and 4th year.
Doing well in Maths in S1 & S2 is important, especially the end of year tests where pupils are often streamed according to their test score. If possible, please try your best and aim to be entered for the National 5 Maths course in 3rd year. If you are a parent you may want to check that your son/daughter is on schedule to achieve this.
Passing N5 Maths significantly increases your career opportunities by helping you gain a place on a college course, apprenticeship or even landing a job. A ‘good’ pass at N5 Maths will set you up well for the fast paced Higher Maths Course should you be interested. Please do your very best to keep on top of your studies.
We hope you find this website useful and wish you all the very best in 2019/20.
