Secondary Early Career Teacher Community – Specialist Knowledge for Teaching Mathematics

This programme has been updated for 25/26 to ensure alignment with the ECT Expertise in Teaching Maths Modules.

What is involved?

This one year programme supports early career secondary teachers to develop their specialist knowledge in maths, underpinned by principles of teaching for mastery.

Participants attend the equivalent of four days of professional development across the year, working collaboratively on maths tasks, contribute to an online community, and reflect with peers and mentors.

What are the benefits of being part of this programme?

  • You will strengthen your understanding of effective maths pedagogy
  • You will improve your lesson design and questioning
  • You will build in confidence in adopting your teaching to meet the needs of your students
  • You will develop knowledge that aligns with teaching for mastery and the ITTECF (Initial teacher training and early career framework).

Who can take part?

Participants will be those identified as having recently started their teaching career; for this programme that means teachers in their second or third year of teaching.

  • 97% of participants agreed that their knowledge of how to teach maths has deepened.  
  • 94% agreed that they have changed something in their practice and that they were able to evaluate and adapt existing resources to meet the needs of their students.  

What is the cost?

The SKTM Secondary Early Career Teachers Programme project is fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme so is free to participating schools.
