Edexcel GCSE Higher: Surface Area & Volume - Worksheet & Full Memo
24 original exam-style questions (106 marks) on prisms, cylinders, cones, spheres and composite solids. Full teacher memo with Edexcel mark codes, plus a formula sheet.
What this is
What it covers:
• Volume and surface area of prisms and cylinders
• Spheres, cones and pyramids, with the formulae supplied as they are in the exam
• Finding a missing dimension when the volume is given
• Composite solids, and deciding which faces are really on the surface
• Frustums, and similar solids using the k, k 2 , k 3 relationships
• One solid inside another: deducing hidden dimensions, recasting and displacement
Who it is for:
Students across the Higher tier. Sections A and B build confidence with substitution; Sections C and D are aimed at grades 7 to 9 and carry most of the problem solving.
What is included:
The worksheet. 24 questions worth 106 marks, with space to work in and the mark allocation printed beside every question, exactly as it appears in the exam. It also contains 5 fully worked examples, each one stepped out with the reasoning written beside the working, so a student can follow the method before attempting the questions.
The teacher memo. A separate document with a full worked solution to every question, written out line by line. Each solution carries Edexcel mark codes so you can see where each mark falls, a note on the method, and — where there is one worth naming — the specific error students make on that question.
Both documents are supplied as PDFs for printing and as editable files, so you can change the numbers or the wording for your own class.
