What will you learn?

  • Your students will think, reason and discuss their maths in order to deepen their understanding
  • You will explore and increase your use of a range of pedagogic approaches aligned to the principles of teaching for mastery
  • You will develop your subject knowledge and confidence to teach secondary maths
