What is involved?
This is for teachers whose students will study Level 2 maths across secondary and post-16. Teachers of Years 10 and 11, and of post-16 GCSE Maths resit and/or Functional Skills Maths, will develop ways to support students who need to study maths beyond age 16 to achieve a L2 qualification.
Work Groups will focus on developing transferable teaching techniques aligned to teaching for mastery. Participants will attend three full-day workshops and complete practice-based tasks between sessions.
What will you learn?
- Your students will demonstrate a positive attitude to maths
- You will ensure that lesson design and pedagogy demonstrate a secure knowledge of curriculum continuity and sequencing
- You will understand the importance of consistency of language and representations relating to specific curriculum areas
- You and your colleagues will make collaboration a normal part of transition, supporting students continuing to work towards a L2 maths qualification
What is the cost?
The Cross Phase – Supporting Low Attainers to Achieve a L2 Qualification in Mathematics project is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme so is free to participating schools/colleges.
