9 October 2024
Speaker: Charlie Stripp MBE - Chief Executive, MEI, NCETM National Director and President, The Mathematical Association
Maths education has never been more important to individuals or to society. There are some successes to celebrate, but there are also some key challenges that are limiting our ability to improve maths education in the UK, in particular:
• Public attitudes to maths and maths education
• A chronic shortage of secondary maths teachers
• A poor track record of using technology to enhance teaching and learning in mathematics
Charlie will discuss these challenges and what might be done to address them. He will also share some nice maths problems!
When: 9th October
