What is involved?

These Work Groups focus on supporting students to develop a deep and connected understanding of multiplicative reasoning. 

Working in a professional learning community, teachers will explore effective ways to teach multiplicative reasoning, share strategies and use carefully designed classroom resources and guidance materials to offer a coherent learning journey for all students. 

One Work Group focuses on Year 7 content and is open to all secondary schools. A second Work Group, focused on Year 8 content, is for schools that have previously taken part in the Year 7 Work Group.

What will you learn?

  • You will strengthen students’ reasoning, fluency and confidence with multiplicative reasoning
  • You will explore key structures and strategies for teaching multiplicative reasoning across KS3
  • You will work with colleagues to plan and reflect on coherent, high quality lessons 
  • You will improve understanding of how to support all students to think and communicate mathematically
  • You will have access to high-quality classroom resources and guidance to ensure secure foundations for GCSE study

Who can take part?

This opportunity is for secondary schools in England. Each school nominates two participants who wish to improve their own teaching and support improvements across the department. It is suitable for experienced and novice teachers. There is an expectation that participants’ subject leaders attend their local Secondary Maths Subject Leaders Community.

What is the cost?

These Work Groups are fully funded by the Maths Hubs Programme, so are free to participating schools.
