For capable Edexcel IGCSE students whose marks do not match their ability
The core promise is to find why the marks are falling, repair the foundational gaps causing the problem and train the student to convert what they know into Pearson Edexcel IGCSE exam marks.
Who this programme is for
- Pearson Edexcel IGCSE students whose marks have dropped
- Capable students getting results below their potential
- Students who understand explanations but struggle independently
- Students repeatedly losing marks through avoidable mistakes
- Students who struggle when exam questions are presented differently
Common reasons marks are being lost
- Foundational gaps from earlier topics or years
- Choosing the correct method independently
- Showing complete mathematical working
- Careless mistakes and checking problems
- Misreading questions or losing method marks
- Timing pressure in Pearson Edexcel papers
- Struggling with unfamiliar problem-solving questions
Individual-Pace Small Group Tuition
The Pearson Edexcel IGCSE format is limited to a maximum of 6 students. Students do not always have to work on the same lesson at the same time; one may need foundational algebra repair while another is ready for past-paper work.

Teaching approach
Indika Herath first looks for the underlying reason marks are being lost. If the problem comes from earlier Maths foundations, the lesson goes backwards to repair those concepts before building forward into grade-level questions and Pearson Edexcel exam practice.
Examination and grade-level focus
Pearson Edexcel IGCSE topic coverage, marks-based working, accuracy, method selection, timing, past-paper readiness and examination performance.
Class format and availability
Classes may be available in Kandy and online, depending on current schedule and the student's needs.
Realistic expectations
This is not a quick-fix Maths class. When gaps have built up over months or years, meaningful academic recovery can take approximately 3-6 months depending on the student and the work completed.
Discuss your child's Maths before joining
There is no advertised detailed diagnostic before joining. Parents can first discuss the student's grade, syllabus, recent marks and main concern. The detailed diagnostic process begins after the student joins.

Questions about Pearson Edexcel IGCSE Maths Marks Recovery Programme
When does the diagnostic process happen?
It happens after the student joins, using previous papers, homework, tests, classwork, weak chapter identification and observed mistakes where available.
Can classes help with calculator-based questions?
Calculator use can be addressed as part of accuracy, method selection and checking routines.
Are unfamiliar questions covered?
Students are gradually trained to recognise what unfamiliar questions are asking after the required foundations and core methods are secure.
Can this help a student who knows the topic but gets low marks?
Yes. The teaching looks at where marks are being lost, including incomplete working, wrong method selection, timing, question interpretation and avoidable errors.
