Kent Mathematics Project Level Five

This resource from Ward Lock Educational consists of The Kent Mathematics Project book 5a, book 5b and a test book relating to the work covered in the books. At present only the test book is available.

The Kent Mathematics Project was developed to accommodate students' ability rather than focussing on their chronological age. The original Kent Maths Project started in the 1960s, well before the National Curriculum. The material has been reprinted since. The levels refer to the Concept Network. As a guide, level one is designed for the average nine-year-old student while level eight covers O level material up to grade A.
