What is involved?
Work groups focus on curriculum and pedagogical continuity over years 5 to 8. Participants will collaborate with colleagues from across key stage 2 and key stage 3, working on mathematical tasks together and reflecting on the resulting activity and learning. School-based activities between meetings encourage participants to make use of the resources with their own pupils.
Who can take part?
This opportunity is for those who teach and/or have responsibility for the curriculum in years 5-8. Participants may be subject leaders or teachers with responsibility for transition in a school. They need to be supported to try out different tasks with their pupils and be released to attend three full-day workshops.
Benefits
- Your pupils in key stage 2 and key stage 3 will demonstrate a positive attitude to maths;
- You will make common use of approaches, representations and language across phases
- You will deepen your knowledge and understanding of the curriculum across key stage 2 and key stage 3 and the expectations of pupils at the end of each key stage;
- You and your cross-phase colleagues will collaborate on issues of curriculum and
pedagogy as a normal part of your school’s transition practice
