About the Course

During a race, a Formula One driver changes gears over 3,000 times. Yet if you asked them, they likely wouldn’t be able to recall a single instance. Seems strange, given one, badly timed gear change could cost them the entire race… why wouldn’t they give it more attention?

The answer – they do. Just not during the race.

 

Drivers are constantly responding to unpredictable scenarios, which require quick decision-making in the moment. Having to think about 3,000 gear changes on top of that leaves little room to focus on racing – which is why the best drivers in the world practice, until they can do it without thinking.

 

The same is true for GCSE Maths.

​

There are certain skills that need to be automatic - because there is simply no time to think about them during an exam. This course is designed to equip students with these skills early,​ so that they can tackle complex, higher-tier topics with confidence.
