Below are the Work Groups that we currently offer.

Specialist Knowledge for Teaching Maths (SKTM) in Entry level Early Years practitioners/NQTs (EYFS) This project will explore the key concepts in early mathematical development and effective pedagogies that support Early Years mathematics learning. Practitioners will develop their subject knowledge by exploring key ideas and progression within areas of mathematics such as cardinality. The role of the adult, the learning environment and resourcing will all be carefully considered as participants build their understanding of effective mathematical pedagogy.

Teaching Assistants, Specialist Knowledge for Teaching Maths (SKTM) – Cohort 1 This Work Group is designed to enhance and deepen maths subject knowledge and pedagogy for teaching assistants. Increased confidence in their own subject knowledge, and enhanced awareness of how children gain number sense and learn mathematics will allow TAs to better support children in the classroom and during small group or individual intervention. Target audience: Teaching Assistants Cost: FREE of charge Location: LETTA, Tower Hamlets, Bygrove St, Poplar, London E14 Dates: TBC

What Makes Excellent Lesson Design? Cohort 1 Teachers in this Work Group will work together to plan exemplar lessons (drawing on new Mastery Professional Development materials produced by NCETM/Maths Hubs) and in so doing will improve lesson design across their school.

Intervention The work group will involve training to explore the premise of a specific intervention model. Following the face to face training, participants will be expected to trial the intervention model in their own settings with a small group of students over the course of two terms, with regular support from the work group lead and the other participants to help evaluate and refine the intervention. Staff will benefit from free training on an intervention model that aims to address the underlying barriers to achievement in mathematics. |

Early Years Transition The work group in this project will start by exploring best practice in Early Years and how the principles might build a secure foundation in mathematics for transition into a teaching for mastery approach in Year 1. It will consider the curriculum – what children need to know and understand; approaches to planning and the inclusion of all children; and appropriate resources and contexts for effective learning.
