Teaching for Mastery Secondary

Secondary Teaching for Mastery 2026/27

What is involved?

Participants work with a small group of local schools, led by a Mastery Specialist, to embed teaching for mastery approaches across their department.

There will be a variety of topics covered such as:

  • Collaborative Planning and Lesson Observation
  • Mathematical Thinking and Problem Solving
  • Oracy
  • Planning for the new maths curriculum
  • Cross Curricular links (especially maths and science)
  • Support for Alternative Provisions

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 you department’s priorities, with resources to support it.

What is the cost?

This is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme so is free to participating state schools. This includes independent special schools with 50% or more LA funded pupils.

All Origin Maths Hub programmes will support schools and teachers in preparing for and implementing the new curriculum, ensuring they have the knowledge, resources and professional development needed to deliver high-quality mathematics education.
