Editor's Notes

  1. This is a good starter whenever you have spreadsheet work to do (in KS3). Display this on the projector and let the students start from a pro-forma if necessary. There is one supplied. If the year is not 2010 then you need to make some small adjustments. See later note.
  2. These numbers need altering for the year you are using it. In 2009 the two numbers were 1759 and 1758 In 2010 the numbers are 1760 and 1759
