Programme | Details |
Developing Teaching for Mastery
| Participants are schools who wish to develop a teaching for mastery approach. Each school nominates two teachers (advocates) to engage in bespoke professional development, supported by a Teaching for Mastery Specialist. The focus in this year is to develop the advocates’ own classroom practice and may include: team teaching, joint observation of lessons, collaborative planning and resource design. Advocates will develop an understanding of the principles of teaching for mastery and the NCETM’s five big ideas. The nature of this phase will be specific to the needs of the individual school, but may include collaboration with other local schools involved in the programme. Any school who has not yet participated in the programme as a Developing School, or Specialist Host can apply to join one. Developing Teaching for Mastery is the start of a Teaching for Mastery journey; in the second year the journey moves to Embedding Teaching for Mastery and in the third year Sustaining Teaching for Mastery. Each participating school receives £2000 towards costs |
Schools in Developing Work Groups in 2021/22 automatically become part of an Embedding Work Groups in 2022/23 supported by the same Teaching for Mastery Specialist where possible. Bespoke support continues, but the focus shifts from individual teachers, to an impact across the whole maths department. Each participating school receives £1000 towards costs Schools will then be invited to join a Sustaining Teaching for Mastery Work Group after this Embedding year. | |
| All schools who have previously engaged in a Teaching for Mastery Work Group are invited to participate in a Sustaining Teaching for Mastery Work Group. This is schools in Developing Work Groups from 2015/16 to 2020/21 including schools in Embedding Work Groups in 2021/22, and the host schools of Teaching for Mastery Specialists. In 2022/23 there will be a choice of focus to help participating schools deepen their understanding of teaching for mastery and sustain the impact of the programme. |

Leadership Programmes
Programme | Details |

The intentions of this programme are:
This project provides an opportunity for participants to deepen their understanding of effective pedagogical approaches and to recognise teaching for mastery as exactly this, of their wider roles, and of their capacity with their colleagues to transform secondary maths learning. | |
| This project aims to support mathematics leads whose role is to lead change in a school or group of schools other than their own; refining their approaches to maths school development work including drawing on the expertise of, and aligning more with approaches used in, the Maths Hubs Programme. |
