Level 3 Mathematics Support Programme

Tender description

See 'Attachments' for a Word version of the advert. The purpose of the Level 3 Mathematics Support programme is to improve and increase participation and attainment in level 3 mathematics through targeted support to those students, teachers, schools and colleges who need it the most. The programme will improve the quality and capacity of mathematics provision post-16, through high quality professional development, support and resources for teachers to teach AS/A level mathematics, further mathematics and Core Maths. The programme will ensure that students in all 16-19 state funded schools and colleges can access AS/A level further mathematics provision. The programme will scale up Core Maths provision, to increase the number of students in 16-19 state funded schools and colleges studying the qualification. Working directly with schools and colleges, the programme will stimulate student demand for level 3 mathematics qualifications to increase the number of students, particularly girls, studying mathematics post-16. The programme will focus on Opportunity Areas (OAs) and areas of low level 3 mathematics participation to improve and increase the number of students studying mathematics post-16 to support social mobility.
