U017 Edexcel GCSE Maths Chart P2

The document summarizes changes to the UK math curriculum. Key changes include moving topics between GCSE levels, such as expanding binomial products moving from Higher to Foundation tier. The new Key Stage 2 curriculum adds topics like long division and operations with fractions. New Key Stage 3 covers areas like plotting points in all quadrants and converting between units. Overall, the document outlines shifts in mathematical content and skills between levels within the UK national curriculum.
