Notice Title

Level 3 Mathematics Support Programme

Notice Description

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, AS/A level further mathematics and level 3 core maths qualifications. 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 these qualifications. Working directly with schools and colleges, the programme will stimulate student demand for level 3 mathematics to increase the number of students, particularly girls, studying mathematics post-16. The programme will also include a focus on opportunity areas (OAs) and areas of low level 3 mathematics participation. This will support social mobility in these areas by improving level 3 mathematics provision and increasing the number of students studying mathematics post-16. Additional information: For operational purposes, the programme will be branded the 'Advanced Mathematics Support Programme'.
