Who can take part?

 

Participants will be those identified as having recently started their teaching career; for this programme that means teachers in their second or third year of teaching.

 

What is involved?

 

This one-year programme supports secondary ECTs to develop their specialist knowledge for teaching maths, underpinned by the principles of teaching for mastery.

​

Participants attend the equivalent of four days of professional development across the year. They also complete school-based tasks, contribute to an online community, and reflect with peers and mentors.

​

All ECTs participating in this programme will be enrolled onto the ECT Expertise in Teaching Maths Modules. These interactive modules are hosted on a learning management system. Whilst ECTs do not need to complete the modules to participate in this programme, the learning from them is explored in greater depth within the sessions.

​
