abstract:

King's College London Mathematics School is for students aged 16-18 with an enthusiasm and aptitude for mathematics, and aims to widen participation in high-quality degrees and careers in the mathematical sciences.

The school opened in 2014 and for nearly 10 years has been evolving a pedagogy and curriculum tuned to generating confident, skilled and articulate mathematical thinkers.

In this talk I will explore those aspects of pedagogy and culture at KCLMS that universities might use to improve their teaching and learning.
