Professional development designed specifically for secondary heads of maths.
What is involved?
This project provides an opportunity for participants to deepen their understanding of teaching approaches, of their wider roles, and of their capacity with their colleagues to transform secondary maths learning.
Participants will support each other through the sharing of leadership strategies and practices. A vibrant professional learning community will be created through peer-to-peer discussions, expert input and engaging with research. This experience will enable participants to inform their work in leading and developing maths education in school. Participants will have the opportunity to plan and prepare within the Work Group sessions.
Who can take part?
The project is for secondary heads of department/subject leaders, and is open to heads of department in schools already involved with Maths Hubs and to those who are not yet involved. In their first year of engagement with the project (‘Year 1 Community’), participants will be part of a Work Group. In subsequent years (‘Year 2+ Community’) they will be part of the Maths Hub-led subject leadership community.
