Overview

The Level 3 Award in Mathematics for Numeracy Teaching is a specialised qualification crafted to equip you with the essential skills for effectively teaching mathematics and numeracy.

Core Purpose and Focus
This award focuses on enhancing your ability to:

  • Interpret mathematical situations: Understand the underlying mathematical concepts in various scenarios.
    Process problems: Apply appropriate mathematical techniques to solve problems.
  • Analyse findings: Evaluate the results of mathematical processes and draw sound conclusions.
  • Use mathematical communication: Clearly articulate mathematical ideas, reasoning, and solutions.

Throughout this course, you'll apply these skills in a wide range of contexts, including academic subjects, personal and public life, and professional and vocational settings, ensuring a comprehensive and practical understanding of numeracy teaching. This means you'll be well-prepared to support learners in applying mathematical principles across diverse real-world situations.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
