Primary Teaching for Mastery Work Group

Collaborative professional development for schools to ensure that a teaching for mastery approach is implemented with fidelity. 

What is involved?

This programme is for primary schools that have previously taken part in a Teaching for Mastery Work Group and want to continue to deepen and embed their approach.

Each participating school will nominate staff to engage in the Work Group, and leaders should support them to lead developments across the school.

Each school will continue working with a group of local schools, supported by a Mastery Specialist. Across the year, participants will collaborate to explore effective leadership, observe live teaching for mastery, implement aspects such as lesson design, and refine systems to maximise pupil impact.

Participants will work closely with their senior leaders to focus on key areas of curriculum development and professional learning. There will also be opportunities to explore implementation strategies focused on particular aspects such as oracy and mixed-age.
