Aims
- understand the purpose of the over-arching themes and their impact on teaching and learning in A Level Mathematics, including use of technology
- be confident to teach aspects of the content (particularly mechanics and statistics)
- apply related pedagogical approaches in their A level teaching to support Covid recovery
- support colleagues in their own school/college in embedding themes from the Work Group in their delivery of A level teaching to support Covid recovery
- become a part of a developing community of practice
