Practical conversations for primary maths leaders, following the challenges, priorities and opportunities that arise throughout the school year.
Liz, Steve and Tom introduce Leading Primary Maths, the thinking behind the podcast and the three core challenges of maths leadership: judging standards, evaluating teaching and securing improvement.
In this episode, Liz, Steve and Tom explore what primary maths leaders can focus on during September to set the foundations for a successful year ahead. They discuss establishing a shared vision for mathematics, using evidence to understand current strengths and priorities, engaging staff around clear goals, and choosing high-impact actions that can lead to sustainable improvement throughout the school year.
Maths leadership rarely follows a neat plan. If there’s a challenge, question or topic you’d like Liz, Steve and Tom to explore, we’d love to hear it.
