Secondary Round-up - January 2022

January's Secondary Round-up looks, in various ways, at making maths engaging:

• using real-life contexts - we report on a discussion between teachers from our #mathscpdchat
• podcast discussion - disengaged in KS4, a research mathematician talks to his former teacher, Tom Rainbow, about how maths came to life for him
• percentage change - how you might use the DfE KS3 guidance to help you plan lessons
• CPD in maths-specific pedagogy - for Early Career Teachers in your area, from your local Maths Hub
• TEDx talk with Prof Alf Coles - should students sometimes be presented with harder maths before they have mastered the basics?

The NCETM Secondary Round-up is emailed to subscribers: if you didn’t get yours, subscribe here, or contact us if you have any difficulties.

Previous editions are available on the News & Features page.
