Securing Foundations at Year 7 Work Group
This project aims to support the teachers of those students in Year 7 who require additional support to secure the foundations of understanding in maths necessary to make good progress in KS3 and beyond.
Full for 2024-2025
Participants will:
- develop their pedagogic and content knowledge of KS1 and KS2 maths, with a particular emphasis on key concepts
- practise strategies and refine their practice to best support students who did not meet age-related expectations (ARE) at the end of KS2
- consider approaches which support all students to reason mathematically and develop a deep and connected understanding of the maths they are learning.
What is the cost?
This project is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme so is free to participating schools.
We encourage two maths teachers from each school to register for the programme and participate in workshop sessions.
