What is involved?
This opportunity is for schools in England that have previously participated in a Secondary Teaching for Mastery Work Group or have a trained Mastery Specialist in their department.
​
Each school will nominate two teachers to take part. Participants should be well placed to lead change within the department.

Who can take part?
Participants work with a small group of local schools, led by an experienced Mastery Specialist or Advocate, to embed teaching for mastery approaches across their department.
​
Work Groups provide opportunities for lesson observation and collaborative planning.
Work Groups will focus on one of four key areas, depending on local priorities:

• Focus A: Developing mathematical thinking across the department
• Focus B: Improving collaborative planning and lesson observation
• Focus C: Deepening understanding of teaching for mastery principles​

Benefits

• You will strengthen students’ understanding, reasoning and fluency
• You will deepen your understanding of teaching for mastery and how to embed it consistently
• You will improve collaborative approaches to planning, teaching and curriculum development
• You will build a culture of sustained professional learning through collaboration
• You will choose a focus area that aligns with your department’s priorities with resources to support it

 What is the cost? 
The programme is fully funded by Central Maths Hub so is free to ​participating schools.
