Summary

We know how vital it is that mathematics at key stage three builds upon the mathematical experience’s students experience at primary school - and this course shows you how!

You'll develop techniques to improve problem solving skills and resilience in the context of hard to teach topics encountered in key stage three – including fractions, proportional reasoning, standard form and powers, the geometry of arithmetic and geometric sequences, exploring graphs using technology, solving problems in three dimensions and Venn diagrams in probability.
