Improving mathematics in key stage 3 SL451
Develop strategies and pedagogical approaches to help your students gain a deeper understanding of key mathematical topics, consider the transition from primary to secondary school, and the mapping of progression through key stage 3.
Summary
It is vital that mathematics at key stage three builds on you students’ mathematical experiences at primary school - and this course can show you how.
Join us to develop techniques to embed fluency, problem solving skills and resilience within the key stage three curriculum. You’ll work with experienced subject specialists and explore classroom-proven techniques and resources that can be embedded in your setting.
“Really enjoyed the course. So valuable to have time to reflect on Maths with colleagues and to discuss topics in depth. It's given me so many ideas to take back to school… Really impressive setup here!” Past participant
