In this unit, pupils will learn how to extend their understanding of solving equations and extend this to consider inequalities. Pupils will consider a variety of inequalities and ways that their solutions can be represented.

In this unit, pupils extend their understanding of inequalities and consider a range of contextual inequalities and ways to find and represent their solutions.
