Recommendation 49
49
Paragraph: 190
Require Department to set out plans addressing maths teacher recruitment and numeracy foundation challenges
Conclusion
There are a number of challenges to be addressed prior to the delivery of this important reform. These include tackling recruitment and retention of specialist maths teachers, and building a stronger foundation of numeracy and mathematical skills and knowledge at GCSE and below. Addressing these issues is a pre-requisite to ensuring the success of compulsory maths up to 18, and the Department must work with the sector to clearly set out how it plans to do so.
