What you get on IGCSE Math Revision: a tour in screenshots
Everything on IGCSE Math Revision, shown as it looks on screen: for students of Edexcel International GCSE Maths A (4MA1) and Cambridge IGCSE 0580, for their teachers and heads of department, and for parents. Each feature below has a screenshot, one line on what it does and a link to try it.
The screenshots come from the live site with a made-up demo school: every student, teacher and parent name in them is fictional. Some features need a plan or a school licence: see plans and prices and school plans.

Common questions
Homework and AI marking
What can students upload for marking?
Photos (JPG, PNG, WebP and iPhone HEIC), PDFs, including multi-page scans, and Word files (.docx, or a Google Doc downloaded as .docx). If a file can't be read, the student is told what to do instead.
Is homework marked automatically?
With either IGCSE School plan, yes. AI marking is on by default when students hand in uploads: each hand-in is marked against the mark scheme straight away and waits in the Marking inbox for the teacher to check. Teachers can switch it off for a homework.
When do students see their AI mark?
Straight away, labelled "AI mark — your teacher may adjust it". Once the teacher confirms or changes it, it says "Checked by your teacher". "See your marked work" shows the student's own pages with ticks, crosses and mark codes, and downloads them as a PDF.
Can students hand in part of a homework?
Yes. On the homework page they tick the questions to hand in now and add the rest later, up to the deadline. Each question is marked when it comes in.
Can students resubmit a marked question?
Yes, unless the homework is locked. A resubmission is labelled as one for the student, in the Marking inbox and in the Markbook (an R badge), because the student has seen the feedback. The first attempt is the homework mark unless the teacher ticks "Count best attempt instead".
What is "Try a similar problem"?
Under a marked question, students can try an unseen question on the same sub-topic and difficulty. With AI marking on your plan it is marked straight away; otherwise the student checks it against the worked solution. It adds nothing to the teacher's marking, and the homework mark doesn't change.
The Markbook
Can I review the marking from the Markbook?
Yes. Click a cell with handed-in work: the window shows the same review as the Marking inbox, with the AI's mark points, the marked pages and "Agree" (one tap to accept the AI's mark), and you can give each question its mark there.
How is the homework % worked out?
It is the AI mark, or the teacher's own mark once they give one. A student's self-rating is shown beside it but not blended in; it is only used when there is no AI mark.
How do I record work that has no mark?
In the column's ⋮ menu, choose "Mark as complete…" to tick students, or "All checked" to complete every handed-in piece with no mark. It shows as Complete, is left out of averages and gets no reminder emails.
Can I change a homework after setting it?
Yes. "Edit assessment" in the column's ⋮ menu opens the full Set work form, filled in: classes, dates, questions, uploads, grading scale and the rest. It works for Record marks only columns too.
Can I give grades instead of percentages?
Yes. Choose a grading scale when you set the work: % or an IGCSE grade from 9 to 1. If you enter only a grade, only the grade is shown; if you enter a %, the grade is worked out from it.
Skill Builders
How are Skill Builders marked?
Students type their final answers and upload a photo or PDF of their working. It is marked against the mark scheme straight away, and the teacher can change any mark.
What does Skill Builder auto-assign do?
On the teacher dashboard, Skill Builders tab, pick a class, 5 to 20 questions per student and a date. Each student gets their own set: their Red and Amber sub-topics first, then recent lessons, then a mix of what the class has covered. Teachers can preview each student's set first, or target their weakest maths skill instead.
What is "Your next Skill Builder"?
A card at the top of the Skill Builders page. Focus picks a student's weakest sub-topics first, then what the class covered recently; Stretch gives harder questions on topics they are already good at.
What is the placement check?
A student with little mastery data sees "Start with a placement check": about 12 questions from across the course, handed in and marked like any Skill Builder. "I haven't learnt this yet" leaves a sub-topic blank. There is no score: the results set where each sub-topic starts on the mastery grid.
What is Maths skills mode?
A Topics | Maths skills switch on the Skill Builders page. It shows the student's weakest skill, such as rounding or rearranging, with 5-question sets on that skill mixed across topics, and quick 8-question drills that are checked instantly.
Can I see which marks students lose?
Yes. In the Skill Builders tab, Question analysis has three views: Questions, Mark points and Maths skills. Mark points shows method, accuracy and reasoning marks for the class and each student, and the commonest reasons marks were lost.
How do Skill Builder streaks work?
A streak counts the weeks in a row with at least one set handed in. Badges are for a first hand-in, a first pass, full marks, 10 sets, 5 sub-topics and 3 weeks in a row. Retakes don't count.
Courses, plans, videos and referrals
Can I pick sub-topics instead of whole units?
Yes. Set work, the Worksheet builder, the test builder, Make a lesson and students' Build your own test all use one sub-topic picker, with a search box and question counts.
How long are the IGCSE plans?
Each IGCSE plan has 32 weeks a year. In Year 11 (4MA1 and 0580) the added weeks are extra teaching lessons, not review; 0580 Year 11 ends with exam revision weeks. A class part-way through the year stays where it was.
A student is on the wrong course. Can they change it?
Yes. Students can switch between Edexcel 4MA1 and Cambridge 0580 from My progress, once every 90 days. They stay in their class and keep their homework and mastery history. Teachers can change it any time from the class list.
Is there a calculator I can use while I practise?
Yes. Press Calculator on a question on a unit page, or in the top bar of practice. It has a scientific mode (Ans, memory, degrees or radians, fractions and a history of your sums) and a Graph tab for plotting. It isn't shown on Cambridge 0580 non-calculator questions.
Where are the video solutions?
With AI on your plan, press "Watch the solution" on a 4MA1 question on a unit page or in Mastery Review. You get an animated walkthrough with narration, built from the mark scheme. Cambridge 0580 questions don't have videos yet.
Can I use a referral code?
Yes. Type it in the "Have a referral code?" box on the plans and prices page, or open a /r/CODE link. See also refer a friend.
