About the event
There are significant numbers of people teaching maths in secondary schools without specialist initial teacher training. This programme supports non-specialist teachers in developing the specialist knowledge (the blend of subject knowledge and pedagogical knowledge) required for teaching maths. It is designed to take place over the equivalent of six days.
Some hubs in the network are offering this programme as part of an EEF trial in 2025/26. Your hub has been chosen to be part of the trial.
Who can take part?
This programme is provided for non-specialist teachers of maths in state-funded schools who fit the following definition: A non-specialist teacher of mathematics is ‘a teacher that is currently teaching some mathematics or has commitment from a headteacher/ executive head to teach some mathematics within the next year, who has not undertaken initial teacher training (ITT) in mathematics’.
