Art of Problem Solving - This is an excellent online program and community aimed particularly at kids who love maths and are good at it. There is a great deal of free content as well as paid courses. Not at all tied to the GCSE curriculum - it's a far wider maths education that that. You will really learn the concepts, and be able to solve unique and interesting problems, not just make your way through the procedures. One parent commented: "If you like their teaching style and really get it, you likely can still score very highly on the GCSE while only using AoPS and doing a few practice exams". They also have a program for younger kids called Beast Academy 

Khan Academy - free, has videos, and exercises where you can track your progress. However, has American focus so some topics may be presented differently and does not tie into UK syllabuses. Not everyone's cup of tea.
