Support for schools beginning their journey implementing teaching for mastery with fidelity

What is involved?

This two-year programme is designed for primary schools that are new to teaching for mastery and want to build a strong foundation for long-term change. Each school will nominate two participants to attend six Work Group sessions, led by an experienced Mastery Specialist. Participants will work with their school leaders to begin developing and implementing a shared vision for maths, with a focus on improving pupil understanding, promoting positive attitudes to maths, and developing consistent, high-quality teaching practices across the school.

Who can take part?

Primary schools in England that have not previously engaged in teaching for mastery. Schools must commit to the two-year programme, nominate two participants - typically the maths lead and one other - and ensure active headteacher involvement.

The Primary Teaching for Mastery Development Work Groups project is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme so is free to participating state-funded schools.
