Post-16 in 2016
A report produced by the Advisory Committee on Mathematics Education (ACME), published in July 2010, discussing the proposals for 16-19 mathematics in anticipation of the review of qualifications scheduled for 2013 with resulting changes to be implemented from 2016.
The report proposes that:
• Three Level 3 pathways in Mathematics should be established, along with a broad Level 2 pathway, to allow all students to continue with mathematics post-16 at an appropriate level of sophistication and volume.
• In order to create an environment in which mathematics is seen as an essential element of post-16 study, an overarching Level 3 qualification should be developed to encompass all post-16 learning. The working title Baccalaureate is used to indicate a qualification which is a coherent package with some universal features, including in particular the opportunity to follow an appropriate mathematical pathway throughout the period.
