SKTM PRIMARY EARLY CAREER TEACHERS

Whilst recognising the requirements of the Early Career Framework, this programme provides a subject-specific focus for the ECT that enhances the statutory offer, with a focus on the teaching of maths. This is situated in the context of two core mathematical concepts: Number Sense and Additive and Multiplicative Reasoning. This programme strikes a balance between developing teachers’ maths subject knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge, alongside classroom practice to support the learning of maths. Participants attend the equivalent of four days of sessions, focusing between sessions on the use of tasks in the classroom.

• You will enhance your maths specialist knowledge and associated pedagogies in line with teaching for mastery principles

• You will consider task and lesson design adapting practice with your pupils’ needs in mind

• Your pupils will be seen to elaborate when responding to questions, showing that their answer stems from secure understanding

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.
