How it works
From first question to predicted grade
Here's what happens when your child starts using Bow Tie Maths — from the first practice question to a full GCSE grade prediction.
Step 1
Identify your gaps
Answer questions. Find your weak spots.
Every question answered helps the app map your knowledge. Weak topics become clear quickly — so you spend time on what actually matters, not re-doing things you already know.

Step 2
Get targeted revision
Every weak topic has a video explanation
Once the app surfaces a weak topic, your child gets practice questions and a clear video explanation — the same format for every topic, grade 1 to 9. No more hunting for the right YouTube video.
Step 3
Track your progress
Watch your radar grow — and your grade rise
Every question answered updates a personal topic radar, showing strength across all GCSE maths topics at a glance. Answer 10 questions on any topic and the app assigns a GCSE grade for that topic. Using machine learning trained on 8 years of exam data, students unlock their overall predicted grade.
"This website really helped boost my maths GCSE grade and made me more confident with certain topics I was struggling with." Amelie, Year 11 student
"The site is a great resource as it is clear and easy to do." Leon, parent
