Our previous survey of Science Initial Teacher Training providers and their trainees in England, conducted during 2023 showed that there is a systemic lack of focus on mathematical skills in science Initial Teacher Training. As a result of this work, the authors are developing a freely available targeted maths resource to support pre-service science teachers during their training year.

During this structured workshop, the authors will share the audit being developed, the results of initial testing and seek your input to the signposting of external resources which will support trainee teachers to further develop their science specific maths skills.

Help us to select and match the best resources to each maths skill.

This session relates to the books sold by ASE/Millgate titled the Language of Maths in Science and Grappling with Graphs.
