Developing Pedagogy in A Level Maths

Overview

In 2020/21, this project will run in Maths Hubs across England and provide support for developing the quality of teaching in response to the demands of the linear specifications for A level Mathematics and Further Mathematics.

Run in partnership with the Advanced Maths Support Programme (AMSP), Work Groups in this project aim to develop existing A level pedagogy and support development of the requirements of the linear A levels and understand the purpose of the overarching themes in departments.

Participants will gain confidence in leadership in departments and in developing others in their department.

Participants are expected to attend a mix of face to face and online Work Group meetings amounting to the equivalent of three days in total. There will be the equivalent of one day of training to attend in each term. Current proposed dates are:

− Monday 30 November (BHASVIC)

− February – online twilight session

− March – online twilight session

− Friday 11 June (BHASVIC)

In addition, participants should partake in further in-school activity (for example, trialling teaching approaches or further departmental professional development), and contribute to Work Group evaluation processes.

This opportunity is available for 9 teachers, in order to observe social distancing during face to face meetings.
