Secondary Early Career Teachers (ECTs) – Specialist Knowledge for Teaching Mathematics

Who can take part?

Phase 1 in this project is for those identified as Early Career Teachers who have not previously participated in this Work Group. Phase 2 is for those in the early part of their careers who have engaged with Phase 1 of this programme before engaging with this phase.

What is involved?

Two maths-specific subject knowledge projects are available to support secondary Early Career Teachers (ECTs) – one is for ECTs who have not yet participated in this project and one is for those who participated in 2022/23. Both projects offer high-quality subject knowledge and pedagogy maths support for ECTs, recognising the requirements of the ECF.

The programme will build on the knowledge gained during initial teacher training. This will be achieved by focusing on one area of maths in detail: multiplicative reasoning for participants in Phase 1, and sequences and graphical representations for participants in Phase 2.

What will you learn?

• Your students will reason with increasing confidence in response to effective questioning within the classroom
• You will consider task and lesson design, with your students’ needs in mind
• You will notice aspects of teaching for mastery within a given task or lesson, and be able to articulate their purpose

What is the cost?

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

What is the time commitment?

This programme includes multiple sessions equivalent to 4 days of sessions.
