-Can include PRWC questions in Topical Review worksheets when revising them in response to yearly O Level questions.

-Instead of letting students do TR in class, let them attempt on their own at home, and then have meaningful PRWC+ facilitation in class.

Expose more of thinking type of questions where students are required to make decision based on mathematical calculations (for example minimise cost or maximise profits)

Math trails, amazing race, escape room, flow charts

Hear from other schools' math departments programmes and adapt for our students.
