A fully worked solution for every question

The Challenge

Year 7 Maths moves fast. In the first term alone, students are expected to shift from primary school arithmetic to algebraic thinking, geometry, and data analysis — often with little time to consolidate each topic before the next arrives.

For many students, this is the year maths stops making sense. And for parents who want to help at home, the methods have changed, the explanations are unfamiliar, and there's no easy way to check whether an answer is actually right.

Our Solution

The Class Mathematics NSW Year 7 Coursebook was written by John Kinny-Lewis — a mathematics teacher with over 45 years of classroom experience — specifically to solve this problem.

Every topic is explained clearly, step by step, with fully worked solutions for every single question. Students can work through it independently, check their answers immediately, and fix mistakes in real time — without waiting for the next lesson or a weekly tutor session.

Why This Book Works

  • Fully worked solutions for every question – clear, step-by-step methods students and parents can follow
  • Clear explanations focused on understanding – not memorisation
  • Hyperlinked solutions (ebook only) – click from a question straight to the solution
  • Video support via QR codes – extra explanation when it's needed
  • Fully aligned to the NSW Year 7 Mathematics syllabus
  • Instant digital access, or a printed book with free shipping
