SECONDARY & POST 16

The projects that we run in secondary schools develop mastery teaching and support department wide collaboration.

 

 In addition, we also support schools and colleges to address the immediate challenge of teaching the 9-1 GCSE, and offer subject knowledge enhancement for new teachers and those teaching maths as an additional subject.

Our Post-16 programmes offer opportunities for developing teachers and maths departments and resources to support all post-16 maths teaching.
