Description The transition into mathematics at AS-level 
Form Of Engagement Activity A talk or presentation
Part Of Official Scheme? No
Geographic Reach National
Primary Audience Professional Practitioners
Results and Impact There were several questions after the talk and it stimulated interest in various participants with similar interests and projects. This resulted in several citations to the work in other papers by these participants.

The project was part of an ESRC knowledge transfer grant that combined the results of other two related projects and worked with the NCETM to produce teaching materials and policy briefs from the outcomes of the research.
