if you already have gone over all the content in your school and are not sure on what you need to focus on, try doing a past paper, and then making a rag sheet on the topics you aren’t the most confident on. I suggest TGMT’s topic list for RAG. Then you would want to watch a YouTube video on that specific topic- there are loads of people with amazing explanations! My personal favourites would be 1st Class Maths, CorbettMaths, and TGMT. They also have some practice questions you can try along in the video, but if you do want more practice you can just search up some and you will find plenty of worksheets online. Simply just typing up ‘gcse maths <higher/foundation> <topic> practice questions’ will do! Once you’re completely confident on the content, I suggest doing past papers and eliminating any silly mistakes or trying to get the timing right. After that you could just keep consistently doing practice papers and questions and try attempting harder questions or IGCSE past questions if you are aiming for a 9. Happy Revision!

What worked for me was I watched YouTube videos on topics (GCSE math tutor and mathsgenie are the best channels for me) and then I did as many questions for that topic I could find. Once you’ve completed that with all the topics, what I did was complete all the past papers I could find, including predicted papers for my year (do these closer to the actual exam)
