This Work Group focuses on participant teachers working together to analyse, deconstruct and trace through the curriculum a selected key topic area, developing insight into effective teaching approaches, and considering the implications for longer term curriculum design.

This year we will be looking at algebra and graphs

Who can take part?

Participants should be secondary school teachers of GCSE Maths. Individuals or ideally pairs of teachers from a department participate, with an expectation that they will work with other members of their department at appropriate points. Schools that have participated in previous years may do so again.

What will you learn?

Participants and their departments will:

• develop a deeper insight into the maths that underpins learning in a challenging topic, through unpicking and analysing the topic
• develop a deeper insight into the key issues and misconceptions behind the topic 
• identify misconceptions and plan a series of lessons to support students in the topic area
• unpick and analyse topics to inform collaborative planning and development of schemes of work

Your students will gain a deeper understanding of the topic area being considered by the Work Group and the underlying maths.
