Who can take part?

This opportunity is for teachers working with those Year 7 students who have not met age-related expectations in maths, particularly students whose attainment is in the bottom 20-30% of the national cohort at the end of KS2. It is suitable for experienced or novice teachers. There is an expectation that participants’ subject leaders attend their local Secondary Maths Subject Leaders Community.

What is involved?

These Work Groups aim to provide professional development and resources for secondary maths teachers so they are better equipped to support students with gaps in understanding from previous Key Stages. Participants will develop their understanding of domain-specific knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge from the KS1 and KS2 maths curriculum, in order to better enable their students to access the KS3 curriculum.

Participants will gain access to high-quality resources designed by experts in the pedagogy and expectations of maths at both KS2 and KS3.

What will you learn?

• Your students will make progress so they are better able to access a suitable KS3 curriculum
• You will develop your pedagogic and content knowledge of KS1 and KS2 maths
• You will consider approaches which support all students to reason mathematically
• You will work as part of a professional learning community to reflect on your approaches, deepen your understanding about effective approaches, and refine your practice

What is the cost?

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