How teaching for mastery supports all pupils, including those with SEND

On Wednesday 2nd October 2024, Whole School SEND and London South West Maths Hub joined forces to put on a free webinar. The webinar provided an introduction to how a Teaching for Mastery approach can foster learning for all students. It also discussed simple adaptations that can support learners with SEND or those at risk of developing math difficulties.

The session was delivered by specialists from London South West Maths Hub and NCETM with support from the SESLON regional team. Building on the London South West Maths Hub's Work Group "A graduated approach to supporting maths difficulties", the webinar looked at the key potential barriers to learning, based on recent research, and explored how this translates into practice using Teaching for Mastery in the Primary and Secondary phases. 

“I thought the webinar was structured really well with the different speakers all cumulatively adding to the learning. The panel discussion was really interesting as well and the 90 minutes flew past. One of the most enjoyable and inspiring bits of training I've done!”

“Excellent - concise, practical. Loved the fact I could go on and read more/sign up to different agencies. It reinforced my philosophy on maths teaching, especially the vocabulary and language part. I still use the NNS word lists to introduce all new topics. I'm looking forward to the next webinar! Thank you.”

“Very informative. Wide range of professionals collaborating from different perspectives. Great how the Panel answered the audience's questions.”
