There is a range of currently available maths teacher professional development around subject knowledge and pedagogy for new teachers of A level Maths via the Advanced Mathematics Support Programme (AMSP), but little extended professional development for experienced teachers or leaders of A level Maths teaching. These Work Groups seek to fill this gap and support experienced A level teachers to not only further develop their expertise but provide a model to support departmental change.
The aim of these Work Groups is to support the teaching of A level Maths, with a focus on pedagogical content knowledge in order to enhance and deepen student understanding of the course and its Overarching Themes.
The Developing A Level Pedagogy Work Group is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme and the AMSP so is free to participating schools/colleges.
