Who can take part?
This community is open to subject leaders from all 2025/26 Mastering Number at Reception and KS1 schools and Mastering Number at Reception and KS1 schools from previous cohorts that have not yet participated in this community.
All participating schools need to be engaged in a 2026/27 Teaching for Mastery Work Group.
This Work Group supports leaders in their continued implementation of the programme, further exploring the materials for Reception and KS1, as well as materials for Year 3 and looking at ways to support colleagues in these year groups to embed Mastering Number in their classes.
Alongside the already established Reception and KS1, the Year 3 teacher(s) will also be expected to use the teaching materials provided in their class(es), as part of a 10-15 minute fluency session, four days a week; this is in addition to the main maths lesson. They will work closely with the maths lead to ensure that all pupils meet the relevant ready-to-progress criteria related to fluency in additive facts
Date/Location
National and Local Online sessions throughout the year
What is the cost?
This is funded by the Maths Hubs Programme; there is no charge for participating schools.
What this programme offers
This programme will support maths leads to understand how to embed effective practice in Reception and in Key Stage 1, to ensure all pupils have the best start in life.
Expectations
The maths lead will attend three termly NCETM-led sessions and two hub-led sessions, as well working collaboratively in an online community
