Collaborative support for teachers developing maths teaching in special school settings

What is involved?

This community is for special schools already participating in a Maths Hubs programme, such as Primary Teaching for Mastery, Securing Foundations at Year 7, or Secondary Teaching for Mastery. Teachers come together at two online twilight events to share approaches and learn from colleagues working in similar settings. Participants also gain access to an online collaboration space to share regional and national expertise. The community supports teachers in adapting mastery principles for special schools, and complements their school’s participation in a Work Group.

Who can take part?

This community is open to teachers in special schools that are currently engaged in one of the Maths Hubs’ national programmes. Participation is optional and free. Teachers do not need to commit additional time beyond the two twilight webinars, though they are encouraged to contribute to the dedicated online community
