Applications are now open for 2026/27
What is involved?
Work Groups focus on curriculum and pedagogical continuity over Years 5 to 8. Participants will collaborate with colleagues from across KS2 and KS3, working on mathematical tasks together and reflecting on the resulting activity and learning.
Sessions will take place in KS2 and KS3 settings, offering the change to see tasks in the context of a classroom. School-based activity between meetings encourages participants to make use of the resources with their own classes.
What will you learn?
- Your pupils in KS2 and KS3 will demonstrate a positive attitude to maths
- You will make common use of approaches, representations and language across phases
- You will deepen your knowledge and understanding of the curriculum across KS2 and KS3 and the expectations of pupils at the end of each Key Stage
- You and your cross-phase colleagues will collaborate on issues of curriculum and pedagogy as a normal part of your school’s transition practice
Who can take part?
This opportunity is for those who teach and/or have responsibility for the maths curriculum in Years 5 to 8. Participants may be subject leaders, phase leaders or teachers with responsibility for transition in a school. They attend three full-day workshops and will be expected to try out different tasks with their classes between sessions.
What is the cost?
This Work Group is fully funded by the Maths Hub Programme, so is free to participating schools.
