Abstract: In this article, we report on a pilot study to investigate the use of aspects of team-based learning (TBL) in mathematics to raise the aspirations of young people from disadvantaged areas. The study involved employing elements of TBL to deliver a mathematics revision course to students who were compulsorily resitting GCSE mathematics in schools and colleges. Students were surveyed before and after the programme and there is evidence that the approach made a positive difference towards students' attitudes to studying at University. There is also some evidence to suggest that the approach can help students to overcome issues related to mathematics anxiety and to feel more confident in their own mathematical ability.
