Who can take part?

 

Phase 1 in this project is for those identified as Early Career Teachers – teachers in their first or second year of teaching. Phase 2 is for those in the early part of their careers. They will have engaged with Phase 1 before engaging with this phase.

​

What is involved?

 

Two maths-specific subject knowledge projects are available to support secondary Early Career Teachers (ECTs) – one is for ECTs who have not yet participated in this project and one is for those who participated in 2022/23. Both projects offer high-quality subject knowledge and pedagogy maths support for ECTs, recognising the requirements of the ECF.

​

The programme will build on the knowledge gained during initial teacher training. This will be achieved by focusing on one area of maths in detail: multiplicative reasoning for participants in Phase 1, and sequences and graphical representations for participants in Phase 2.

 

What will you learn?

 

• Your students will reason with increasing confidence in response to effective questioning within the classroom

• You will consider task and lesson design, with your students’ needs in mind

• You will notice aspects of teaching for mastery within a given task or lesson, and be able to articulate their purpose
