CGP are good. I'd recommend the revision guide:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/GCSE-Maths-Revision-Guide-Higher/dp/1782943862

workbook:

exam practice book:

practice papers:

Also, a revision checklist can be good. Here's one I made with questions and a PDF checklist but MathsGenie is also good for that.

Cheers mate, Do you think i should target a Edexcel Specfic Based Workbook ?

The content is the same so for revision guides/workbooks a generic 9-1 guide is fine like the CGP books I linked. For exam workbooks and practice papers it's best to choose Edexcel and the bottom two links I gave you are Edexcel specific.

I'd go for the first and third links I posted. If you have a kindle you may be able to afford 3 books.
