Author Description
An expert dual approach - with David Rayner injecting his well-known rigour and exact match to the Cambridge IGCSERG (0607) specification, plus IB Maths specialist Jim Fensom incorporating the enrichment and IB-focus needed for success in future IB study. The resource is fully up-to-date and endorsed by Cambridge. It provides thorough exam support, with a practice-based approach and plenty of worked examples to reinforce understanding. The free CD contains extra resources focused on building assessment confidence, with revision help and a whole suite of past exam papers. This resource offers just the right amount of rigour for Cambridge IGCSE International Mathematics and is specially tailored for IB preparation, with integrated graphics calculator guidance providing invaluable support. A solid foundation which will sufficiently challenge students to hit the ground running in IB Maths.
Menrva's Summary
THE THESIS
This text investigates the mathematical proficiency required to bridge the gap between the Cambridge IGCSE International Mathematics curriculum and the rigorous demands of future International Baccalaureate (IB) study. The authors, David Rayner and Jim Fensom, combine their respective expertise in secondary mathematics and IB-specific preparation to create a pedagogical framework. By aligning content with the 0607 specification while integrating advanced enrichment modules, the book establishes a structured pathway for students to master core concepts while developing the analytical skills necessary for higher-level academic success.
THE SCOPE MAP
