Celebrate Maths Week England 2026 with this engaging Higher Tier GCSE Mathematics quiz, created by Cath Moore.
The quiz contains ten questions covering a range of mathematical topics, designed to develop students’ mathematical reasoning and problem-solving skills. Rather than focusing on routine calculations, the challenges encourage students to think creatively, discuss their ideas and work collaboratively to find solutions.
Teachers can use the quiz as a whole-class activity, a team competition or a collaborative problem-solving challenge. Questions can also be selected individually to suit the topics students have already covered.
The resource is flexible and easy to use, requiring only plain paper. Answers are included, making it straightforward to deliver as part of a Maths Week England celebration or a regular GCSE Mathematics lesson.
