Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics Core and Extended 3rd Edition

This third edition of the popular Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics Core and Extended series provides full guidance for both you and your students following the Cambridge IGCSE Mathematics syllabuses (0580/0980) for examination from 2025. With new teaching and learning features within the resources and the updated digital teaching and learning platform, Cambridge Online Mathematics, you will have everything you need to support your students. The new series includes a coursebook, access to Cambridge Online Mathematics, core practice book, extended practice book and teacher's resource.

The third edition fully covers both Core and Extended content through the ‘spiral’ approach, where students build their previous learning as they progress through the course. In addition to wealth of practice questions and support for English as second language learners, we have included a number of projects to encourage students to put their theory into practice provided by NRICH - a collaboration between the Faculties of Mathematics and Education at the University of Cambridge. This print coursebook comes with a subscription to Cambridge Online Mathematics, our enhanced digital teaching and learning platform. Coursebook answers are available on Cambridge Go.
