CCEA GCSE Maths
CCEA builds its GCSEs from units, and the combination a pupil is entered for sets the highest grade available. That makes the unit codes below worth knowing by name rather than skimming.

How Fincho uses this
Fincho tracks the same areas the awarding body uses, so a mistake in a test is filed against the part of the specification it belongs to rather than against a subject. Practice is generated for the area that keeps going wrong, in the style and command words of this specification, and marked against its mark scheme.
These pages summarise what a CCEA specification covers and link to CCEA's own document. They are not the specification, and the school decides which units a pupil is entered for.

The specification itself
The area names are the awarding body's own. What each one contains is in the specification above, and that is the document that counts.
