Mathematics Form 2 — JC & IGCSE Foundations
About Course
Maths should make sense. This course teaches every Form 2 topic the way a great teacher would: the why first, then clear worked examples with one step per line, then plenty of practice with tap-to-reveal answers.
It covers two syllabuses at once: the Botswana Junior Certificate (JCE) Mathematics syllabus for Form 2 and the Cambridge Lower Secondary Mathematics framework (Stage 8), which leads straight into IGCSE.
Every unit has:
- a colourful lesson with diagrams, key words and “Watch out!” common mistakes
- 12–15 practice questions at three levels (warm-up, core, stretch) with full step-by-step answers
- Maths Live: Explore it live (move sliders and see the maths change), Why the rule works, a Practice machine with unlimited fresh questions, Spot the mistake and Remember it flashcards
- how the topic appears in the JCE and later in IGCSE
Each term ends with a test, the year has a hands-on project and an end-of-year exam with a full mark scheme.
Units in this course:
- Integers, powers and roots
- Prime factorisation, HCF and LCM
- Indices and the laws of indices
- Rounding, significant figures and estimation
- Fraction calculations and recurring decimals
- Expanding brackets and factorising
- Formulae
- Equations with brackets and unknowns on both sides
- Solving linear inequalities
- Data displays: grouped data
- Percentage increase, decrease and change
- Ratio and direct proportion
- Consumer arithmetic: interest, hire purchase and commission
- Quadrilaterals and their properties
- Circles: circumference and area
- Area of 2D shapes
- Constructions, scale drawings and loci
- Averages from frequency tables
- Probability: combined and experimental
- Matrices I
- Sequences and the nth term
- Straight-line graphs
- Real-life graphs
- Compound measures: speed, density and rates
- 3D shapes: plans, elevations, surface area and volume
- Transformations and vectors
- Bearings and scale drawing
- Scatter graphs and correlation
