As many of you will be aware the DfE published some new non-statutory guidance for teaching primary mathematics on 6 July 2020. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/teaching-mathematics-in-primary-schools
The aims of this guidance are to: - bring greater coherence to the national curriculum by exposing core concepts in the national curriculum and demonstrating progression from year 1 to year 6
- summarise the most important knowledge and understanding within each year group and important connections between these mathematical topics
In order to support teachers and senior leaders with using this new guidance effectively alongside the national curriculum once we have moved back into more formal lessons, we are running hourly briefing sessions in term 1.
There will be one session for maths leaders and senior leaders, one for Y1/2, one for Y3/4 and one for Y5/6.
The aims of the sessions will be to: - Support teachers/senior leaders with a full understanding of the new guidance and how this fits with the national curriculum
- Consider how to plan a series of lessons and use the new guidance within lessons
- How to use the new guidance to support intervention and catch up
- Look at other resources to support pupils
- Explore how the new guidance can be used to assess gaps in learning
