Strengthening partnerships with ITT providers

This project supports the development of a network of ITT representatives committed to building communities of practice and evolving provision for teaching mathematics.

 

What will you learn?

  • You and those responsible for maths provision at your institution will review your practice and programme
  • You will aim to ensure trainees develop an understanding of designing lessons informed by teaching for mastery principles
  • Maths Hubs leaders will develop a dynamic awareness of the local needs of early career teachers and schools
  • Maths Hubs leaders will ensure regular opportunities for collaboration and professional discussion across ITT providers, with this dialogue informing hub work

Programme Structure

This programme includes:

  • Work Groups that support sustained networks between ITT providers and local Maths Hubs
  • A focus on embedding initial preparation for teaching for mastery within ITT programmes
  • Collaboration to identify and respond to the mathematical needs of early career teachers

Who should attend

  • Lead participants from the ITT community who are directly involved in ITT and have responsibility for maths
  • Participants may represent a range of ITT providers across the hub region, including HEI, SCITT and School Direct
  • Participants may work across different phases of ITT, including EYTS, QTS (primary and secondary), and post-16

Benefits

Participants will:

  • Strengthen collaboration between ITT providers and Maths Hubs
  • Improve preparation for teaching for mastery within ITT programmes
  • Develop shared understanding of early career teacher needs
  • Contribute to the ongoing development of maths provision across the sector

 

Our Professional Development is funded by the Department for Education and is free to all participating schools.
