Who can take part?

Participants should be experienced primary practitioners with the capacity to lead change in their own schools, and to develop as leaders of professional development in other schools. Their headteachers commit to supporting them and to developing teaching for mastery in their schools. Applications will be particularly encouraged from Reception teachers who are willing to support their maths lead to develop teaching for mastery across the school, including in Early Years.

What is involved?

In the first year of the programme, three two-day face-to-face residential events – one in each term – provide an opportunity to develop understanding of the Five Big Ideas in depth, and to focus on the specialist subject knowledge required to design lessons that unfold the maths for all children.

Between residentials, as a classroom teacher, specialists will apply their learning to the context of their own classroom and school, reflecting with others on what the impact of learning has been on pupils.

What will you learn?

• Your pupils will show a positive attitude towards maths and enjoy learning the subject
• You will demonstrate deeper subject knowledge and greater understanding of the principles behind teaching for mastery
• Your colleagues will begin to develop teaching for mastery approaches
• Your school will develop policies and systems which support a teaching for mastery approach

What is the cost?

This is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme so is free to participating schools.
