Welcome to the Bridging the Gap resources from ALevelMathsRevision.com — a free set of worksheets and video lessons designed to carry you smoothly from GCSE Maths to A Level Maths. The step up to A Level is one of the biggest in the whole curriculum, and the students who cope best are the ones who arrive fluent in the core algebra that everything else is built on. These resources close exactly that gap.
Each topic below comes with a printable worksheet of exam-style questions, drawn from real past papers, alongside both handwritten and fully typed worked solutions so you can check every step of your reasoning. Work through them with a pen and paper before you start Year 1 proper — or use them at any point to shore up the fundamentals.
Think of Bridging the Gap as the starting point — the groundwork you lay before the main course begins. Once these fundamentals are secure, the natural next step is to start building on them: head into the full A Level Maths lesson library and begin working through the Year 1 topics, where each new idea rests on exactly the algebra you have just mastered here.
These resources follow the current A Level Maths specification and suit students preparing with any UK exam board, including AQA, Edexcel, OCR and OCR MEI. Browse the topics in the table below, or return to the ALevelMathsRevision.com home page to explore everything the site has to offer. All Bridging the Gap resources are free to access.
