Level 3 Maths Qualification Overview
Level 3 Award in Mathematics for Numeracy Teaching online is a specialist award that helps in enhancing the knowledge of mathematics thereby effectively honing skills for teaching numeracy to learners.
In contrast to general maths qualifications that consider the skills taught in maths as purely arithmetic, this Level 3 maths teaching course focuses on the implications of numeracy skills, how adults learn numeracy, and how trainers/tutors can help pupils acquire the practical maths skills that they can apply in their daily lives and in the workplace.
