FREE Work Group aimed at Primary and Secondary schools where a teacher from each phase (Yr 5 - Yr 8) will work together.
The Work Group participants will gain knowledge, understanding and experience of the curriculum at KS2 and KS3 and a clear understanding of what pupils leaving KS2 are expected/able to do at all levels of attainment. This will include understanding of the representations and structures used in both Key Stages and how these support the development of conceptual understanding and mathematical reasoning.
The aim of the Work Group is that teachers will develop shared approaches to planning and delivery of the mathematics curriculum at KS2/KS3 and will disseminate their work across their schools. Plus provide a consistent use of resources and representation (especially for children working below ARE at the end of KS2) to give them the best chance of making good progress as they move from KS2 to KS3
The Work Group comprises 4 Online sessions plus intersessional tasks.
All 4.00 - 5.30pm
- Thurs 22 April
- Wed 12 May
- Wed 26 May
- Thurs 10 June
Ideally, schools will attend as linked pairs i.e. one Primary and one Secondary teacher together so if possible, please liaise with your linked (feeder) Primary or Secondary school(s). Please do include the linked school's name(s) in your registration so we can match you up.
You are also welcome to join this group as a single / non linked Primary or Secondary school for continuity of pedagogy, resources and representations across KS2/3.
Although this Work Group is online, it is offered to State-funded schools in the North-East Hants and Surrey Maths Hub Region.
