BBO Maths Hub | October Newsletter 2021

This article has been brought to you by BBO Maths, for the attention of all schools.

We are sure, like most of us, you are grateful to have reached the end of the first half term of the academic year without as many of the disruptions and uncertainties of recent times. Hopefully the return of relative ‘normality’ has been enjoyable and productive.

The BBO Maths Hub have been focusing on getting their Work Groups up and running, including many new programmes that have been introduced for this year.

The NCETM and the Maths Hubs Network are running a professional development programme designed to support non-specialist teachers teaching maths in a secondary school. Participants will develop specialist knowledge for teaching maths, thus enabling them to understand, teach and support students in maths in the classroom. 

A CPD project exploring Years 5-8 Continuity is available to teachers in both primary and secondary schools. Participants will focus on the transition between the phases, and use the popular NCETM Checkpoints materials. 

An A3 electronic flyer is now available, summarising the CPD and resources available to secondary maths departments and organising the offer by departmental need. 

As part of the wider CPD offer for Early Career Teachers, Maths Hubs are running two CPD projects: Specialist Knowledge for Teaching Mathematics – Primary Early Career Teachers and Specialist Knowledge for Teaching Mathematics – Secondary Early Career Teachers

Please see the attached version of the latest newsletter which has details of all the FREE CPD opportunities that are being offering this year. More information and bookings can also be accessed on the website.
