Primary Teaching for Mastery Embedding Work Group

Collaborative professional development to support schools in their second year of Teaching for Mastery

The Primary Teaching for Mastery Embedding Work Group is for all primary schools who have previously participated in Primary Teaching for Mastery Development Work Group in 2023/24.

 

What is involved?

Work Groups in this project will support schools to scale up teaching for mastery approaches from individual teachers’ classrooms, ensuring whole-school practices are consistently adopted. There are six workshops across the year, plus support from a Mastery Specialist.

Those who have been in a Development Work Group become part of this project, focusing on systems and culture to support teaching for mastery, as well as support for school leadership and subject leadership.  

 

Benefits

  • Participants will enhance mathematical subject knowledge, emphasising key areas of maths
  • Participants will plan, teach and reflect on lessons with a mastery approach
  • School leaders will understand the school-wide structures which enable staff to develop mastery approaches
  • Participants and school leaders will establish a set of principles, policies, practices and systems which embody a teaching for mastery approach

 

Who is it for?

This is for schools who have participated in the Primary Teaching for Mastery Development Programme in 2023/24. All must show a strong commitment for embedding teaching for mastery approaches, and at least the lead teacher from the Development Work Group must have already started using mastery approaches. The school leadership team including the headteacher must also be involved, to ensure there is a whole school commitment.

 

What is the Cost?

The Teaching for Mastery Embedding project is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme so is free to participating schools.
