Schofield and Sims

If you are serious about maths preparation, I would recommend getting all 6 books from Mental Maths series. The last one is suitable for KS2 and 3, so if your child does the questions from all the books, he will be a bit ahead-nothing wrong with it.

When my son started the books, he was very slow and had to ask many questions. Nowadays (he is on book 5), he is flying through questions and may be unsure of 1-2 out of 36. Mental Maths questions are very good, as they involve thinking and applying basic maths to problem solving. A real "must" for any pupil. At £2.45-£2.95 per book they are a very good value for money.
