We propose a new post-16 GCSE maths qual to improve resit success and better prepare young people with the maths needed for work and life: mei.org.uk/proposal-for-a… It builds on work funded by Nuffield Foundation to develop an alternative GCSE-level curriculum for maths resit students
To everyone working in education: thank you for all your hard work this year. At Department for Education, we'll get our heads down over summer so that on the other side of the holidays, you have what you need to do your vital work. I hope you enjoy your very well-deserved break 🌞

Great support from The Royal Society Chair of the Education Committee on AL Maths & FMaths. Equally on #CoreMaths with a timely additional message on the importance of what these quals offer & the lack of information on these on results day. Call for action by policy makers please.

Surely MA ATM LMS NANAMIC etc would have some sway with JCQ and get them added? Orgs, eh?
