Origin Maths Hub are looking for experienced and enthusiastic primary teachers with the capacity to lead change in their own schools, and to develop as leaders of professional development in other schools, to become Primary Mastery Specialists. Participants on this programme take part in a fully funded professional development programme leading to the opportunity to develop and work as a Primary Mastery Specialist.

Time out of school and within school to work on developments (approximately 10 days in the first year) is funded (£2250 per year), to support with any cover/staffing costs. ​

The second year onwards will require teacher release time and will be fully funded through the Maths Hubs. The exact number of days will be discussed with the Maths Hub and depend on the nature of the work carried out by the Mastery Specialist. ​

“This programme is the best CPD I have ever been part of. It is a real blend of subject knowledge for teaching and pedagogy whilst being delivered in a way that models how to share this new knowledge professionally with colleagues. Being involved with the Maths Hubs and NCETM, particularly the Mastery Specialist training, has had the single biggest impact on my practice as a teacher.”
