Supporting Students to Achieve a L2 Qualification in Maths

Who can join?

This programme is open to teachers of GCSE Maths, GCSE Maths resit, and/or Functional Skills Maths. Whether you teach in a secondary school, UTC, FE college, Sixth Form college, a school with post-16 provision, or another post-16 setting, you are warmly invited to take part.

What’s involved?

If you teach students working towards Level 2 maths (up to and beyond age 16), this opportunity is for you. Teachers of Years 10 and 11, as well as those supporting GCSE resit and Functional Skills learners, will explore practical strategies to help students succeed in achieving a Level 2 maths qualification.

Work Groups will focus on transferable approaches rooted in teaching for mastery. You’ll take part in three full-day workshops, with opportunities to try out practice-based tasks in between sessions.

What will you gain?

By joining, you will:

• Help your students develop greater confidence and a positive mindset towards maths

• Strengthen your lesson design and pedagogy, with a clear understanding of curriculum sequencing and continuity

• Learn how to use consistent language and representations across key topics to support learner progression

• Build collaborative practices with colleagues across phases, supporting smoother transitions for students continuing their journey towards a Level 2 qualification

What does it cost?

The Supporting Students to Achieve a Level 2 Qualification in Maths project is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme. Participation is free for all schools and colleges.
