If necessary, the blocks can be interchanged to allow for local conditions, preferences, etc. Where prior knowledge is required before starting a block, this is listed in the
‘Notes’ column in the Scheme of Work; please read this carefully to ensure necessary learning has taken place before attempting the work.
Similarly, the order in which each chapter is completed can be rearranged within each block if resources or timetabling dictates but, once again, some care needs to be
taken to ensure the necessary prior learning has taken place.
Please note that although the Core & Extended textbook covers all the Core syllabus content, this book is aimed particularly at students studying the Extended syllabus.
Our Cambridge IGCSE™ Core Mathematics Student’s Book provides a deeper level of support for the Core syllabus content and would be more suited for students
focusing on the Core syllabus only.
