What is involved?

Many teachers in secondary schools teach maths without specialist training. This programme provides specialist knowledge by combining subject knowledge and pedagogical techniques to improve teaching practice.

The programme runs over the equivalent of six days and is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme—meaning it’s free for participating schools!

What will you learn?

By joining this programme, you will:

• Help your students think, reason, and discuss maths more deeply.
• Explore a variety of teaching approaches aligned with teaching for mastery.
• Strengthen your subject knowledge and curriculum understanding of secondary maths.
