Teaching for Mastery Readiness Programme
In 2020/21 all Maths Hubs will be running primary mathematics Mastery Readiness Work Groups led by Mastery Readiness Leads. This programme is for schools who have a commitment to developing a teaching for mastery approach long term, but who currently need additional support for improving mathematics teaching, learning and leadership.

Teaching for Mastery Development Programme
In 2020/21, all Maths Hubs will be running primary mathematics Teaching for Mastery Work Groups led by Mastery Specialists. This programme is for schools who have a commitment to developing a teaching for mastery approach. Although the participation involves two teachers attending events outside of school, it is expected that these two teachers lead development across the whole school. Schools who have completed the Mastery Readiness Programme move on to this programme automatically.
Embedding Teaching for Mastery
Schools who participated in a TfM Development Work Group in 2019/20 are eligible to continue to work with a Mastery Specialist through the TfM Embedding Work Group. This work group comprises half-termly TRGs and one school visit from the specialist during the year. The aim of these groups is to support schools in embedding structures and systems to ensure that all teachers can be supported to implement TfM across the whole school. This involves working with school leaders and classroom practitioners and establishing systems of professional development which support continual improvement and refinement within and across schools.

Sustaining Teaching for Mastery
Any school that has previously engaged in a TfM Development Work Group is now eligible to join a TfM Sustaining Work Group. This work group comprises six half-termly workshops focusing on leadership development, collaborative planning and subject knowledge development, whilst also seeking to establish continuing support for collaborative planning and leadership within the school.

Specialist Knowledge for Teaching Mathematics (Teachers)
Work groups in this project – which are available for both primary teachers and teaching assistants – will develop their mathematical subject knowledge in conjunction with understanding the pedagogy that underpins the teaching of it. Understanding of mathematical structures will be explored so that participants gain a detailed understanding of how children learn early mathematical concepts. CODE Maths Hub will be recruiting participants for this FREE work group early in the Spring Term.

CODE Catch-Up Christmas 2020
All of us here at CODE hope that you had as good a summer break as you could during these strange and challenging times. As we start the new academic year we continue to be as passionate as ever about supporting mathematics for young people in our area. We’ve modified some of our planned activity which will mean that initially a lot of our work will take place online. We hope, if the situation surrounding COVID allows, that we will be able to resume face-to-face sessions late in the Spring or Summer term.

CODE Catch-Up Summer 2020
Wow – what a strange and busy year it has been! So much has happened which we couldn’t have anticipated and during these exceptionally challenging circumstances some of our activity has inevitably had to be changed and adapted. Having said this, it is testament to everyone involved in the CODE hub and their desire to improve teaching and learning in mathematics for all young people that we have continued to offer a programme of support and development. Thank you.
