Case Studies

In these Standards Unit: Improving Learning in Mathematics videos you have the opportunity to explore some of the experiences of the teachers and trainers in taking part in the pilot project.

Mandy's experience
Mandy Cave is a teacher at Carmel College in St Helens. The film shows two of her sessions and her talking about being involved in the pilot project.

Frank's experience
Frank Mills teaches at Chesterfield College, and has been using the approaches at levels 2 and 3. The film shows one of his GCSE resit sesssions.

A departmental approach
At Bognor Regis College Alison Terry and Margaret Ballantyne have been working on the pilot. They are so enthusiastic about the approaches that they are now working with colleagues to apply them across the department.

A whole college approach
Tower Hamlets College in East London was one of the first organisations to be involved with the pilot project. It has extended the Standards Unit approach to all aspects of mathematics and numeracy across the college.

HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment. Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date. Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work. Further information is provided in our Health and Safety guidance.
