Secondary Subject Leadership Work Groups

Professional development designed specifically for secondary heads of maths.

 

WHAT'S INVOLVED?

Local Work Groups will follow a cycle of workshops followed by school-based tasks. Participants will support each other through the sharing of leadership strategies and practices. A vibrant professional learning community will be created through peer-to-peer discussions and expert input. Participants will also create an action plan for their department.

Much of the work will involve each individual department working on elements of their action plan and developing collaborative ways of working which support their professional development. As well as exploring the needs of their own department, participants will benefit from the expertise and experiences of the group of departments represented.

 

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

  • You will promote and develop a shared vision, culture and set of principles for teaching and learning in maths
  • You will ensure coherence in the curriculum and provide support for teaching for mastery across the department
  • You and your department will establish collaborative ways of working to support ongoing developments
  • You will develop in your ability to lead change

 

WHO CAN APPLY?

Secondary heads of department/subject leaders. The project is open to heads of department in schools already involved with Maths Hubs and to those who are not yet involved. (Prospective HoDs/subject leaders are not eligible to join this project.)

 

WHAT IS THE COST?

The Secondary Subject Leadership Work Groups are fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme so is free to participating schools.
