About the Event

FOR 24/25 PLEASE VISIT: https://www.sussexmathshub.co.uk/event-details/supporting-students-at-gcse

Who can take part?

This is for teachers of GCSE Maths, and for those teaching GCSE Maths resit and/or Functional Skills Maths. Participants may be based in secondary schools, UTCs, FE colleges, Sixth Form colleges, schools with post-16 provision, or other post-16 settings.

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.
