Post-16 Projects 2020/21

Overview

​

This Work Group is open to all levels of specialism and experience in Core Maths teaching. The ethos of the Core Maths Work Group is a collaborative platform for sharing best practice. Key areas of the curriculum are targeted through discussion and reflection. Pedagogical techniques and new resources are then developed to pro-actively improve our Core Maths provision. Our main outcome is to develop pedagogical techniques and novel resources through reflection and pre-empting student misconceptions for target topic areas. We will also aim to embed life skills in our Core Maths students, whilst also improving exam technique.

Overview

​

Work Groups in this project will explore effective ways of teaching key content to GCSE resit students. Participants will, through collaboration and experimentation, deepen their knowledge and understanding of the curriculum demands of GCSE Maths and their awareness of pedagogical approaches that best support students taking GCSE for the second time. It is an opportunity to discuss the challenges we face with GCSE resit, think reflectively, share ideas and work collaboratively with teachers of post-16 GCSE resit from a variety of institutions.
