I haven’t yet heard a teacher say they don’t want the formula sheets - have your say!
We’re consulting on the continued use of formulae and equation sheets in 2025, 2026 and 2027.
This follows @educationgovuk’s decision that students don’t need to memorise formulae and equations for GCSE maths, physics and combined science.
