Staff from St Vincent’s Catholic Primary School, Westminster travelled to Shanghai in Sepetmber 2014.
Read their Powerpoint summary here
Two Shanghai Maths teachers taught at St Vincent’s Catholic Primary School, Westminster for two weeks in
November 2014. Many teachers came to observe the lesson and many pupils came from local schools to be
taught.
Kris and Chen
intregarted very
well at St Vincent’s

What teachers said about the experience:
It was a great opportunity to learn how another culture teaches mathematics. It was also an
opportunity to observe mathematics lessons in Year 2 & Year 5 led by the Shanghai teachers. What
was really beneficial was having the opportunity after each lesson to ask the teachers questions (and
give feedback) and to have this opportunity for professional dialogue. It was also very insightful
unpicking the Shanghai text book and thinking of the many ways we can “build” it into our own
mathematics curriculum. It was also a good opportunity to meet (network) with other teachers
working within Westminster.
The CPD opportunity was fantastic. It enabled me to look at how Maths is taught in my school and
gave me ideas of how to deliver similar strategies. It has been an incredible opportunity and I gained so
much from it. The main benefits were being able to look at Maths teaching from a different approach.
I have changed some of my planning to include a ‘story’ at the beginning of my Maths concepts,
putting the abstract calculations into a real life context.
I have gained some good teaching ideas but have really realised the importance of striving for a deeper
understanding within Maths rather than aiming to move children on to the next thing too soon.
Thank you for hosting this event each week. It has been great. I look forward to the hub organising
more Maths events for local coordinators. We need to keep up to date with new pedagogy.

7. Text book project
Use of high quality textbooks
to support teacher
professional development
Edward Wilson Primary School and St Mary's Bryanston Square are working on this project. Both schools will
be trained in the use of the Inspire Maths text books and will report back in future Maths Hub bulletins.
In this project, two schools from each Maths Hub area are, in Year 1 classes only, trialling the use of adapted
versions of textbooks currently used in Singapore. The schools have chosen between two texts: Inspire Maths,
adapted by Oxford University Press; and Maths – No Problem, adapted by the publishers Maths No Problem!
Both texts have been adapted in line with the new National Curriculum.
Teachers engaged in the project will participate in five workshop days to support them in introducing the
books to pupils, in using the books in the course of lesson planning and design, and in their own professional
learning.
The aim of the project, as in the England – China project, is to help participating teachers and schools develop
and embed a mastery approach to maths teaching.

8. Maths Mastery Conference
report Feb 2015
The Teaching Primary Maths for Mastery Forum in Birmingham in February 2015 came as the second wave
of Shanghai teachers completed their work in English schools. It was a good moment to hear the experiences
and early lessons learned by those schools, and by the NCETM. In the audience were teachers from the host
schools and from other schools interested in learning about mastery approaches to teaching maths.
Broad Themes: The NCETM’s Director for Primary, Debbie Morgan, steered the audience through the main
session of the day. Based on observing scores of Shanghai lessons in English classrooms, and in-depth followup discussions with the Shanghai teachers and their English counterparts plus her own research over the last
year, she outlined the broad characteristics of teaching for mastery. When combined, these maximise the
chances of pupils developing deep and sustainable understanding. They include:

Pursuing procedural fluency (rapid recall and application of facts and techniques) and conceptual
understanding at the same time

Teachers communicating their expectation that all pupils (except those with extreme special needs)
will achieve
China – England Maths project
moves into the secondary section
from September 2015 – watch
this space!”

Keeping the whole class together on the same material

Intelligent practice

Frequent homework (in small amounts)

Spending longer amounts of time (and going deeper) on key topics

Rapid intervention for those not making sufficient progress in a lesson

Using a high quality textbook, both to aid pupils’ learning and to support teachers’ planning and
professional development
Many of these themes, and how schools had successfully changed their approach to embed them, were
illuminated by Headteachers from schools that have hosted Shanghai teachers.
8b. New Maths Hubs programme magazine
focuses on teaching for mastery
Bespoke Newsletter link here
The NCETM has published the first issue of what will be a regular magazine giving information and news
about the Maths Hubs programme. The magazine, called Bespoke, is published on the Maths Hubs
programme website, and has also been emailed to all 180 000 NCETM registered users.
April 2015 articles: Teaching for mastery takes root | Early changes - Copley Primary School | Early
changes - St Thomas of Canterbury School | Early changes - Elmhurst Primary School | Intelligent Practice
| Reassurance from Ofsted | Future Challenges | England – China: Key Facts
8c. New programme to develop 140 primary
Mathematics specialist teachers to drive
forward teaching for mastery
Details have been announced of a new programme to train 140 primary teachers to become specialists in
mastery approaches to teaching Maths.
The programme, run by the NCETM in conjunction with Maths Hubs, significantly builds on the work already
underway to spread and embed teaching for mastery approaches in maths lessons in English primary schools.
Once fully trained, each one of these new specialist teachers will lead the professional development of
further groups of teachers in schools within their Maths Hub area. Over time, this will spread the
understanding of, and expertise in, teaching maths for mastery widely across the primary school system. Four
participant teachers will be recruited in each Maths Hub area, so ensuring an even spread of new teaching
and leadership capacity across the country.
The programme is aimed at existing teachers who have already demonstrated a passion and talent for
teaching mathematics, and have the potential to both develop their own teaching skills in line with mastery
approaches and pass those on to others.
Participation in the programme will require a substantial time commitment: around 12 days’ release from
existing school responsibilities in the first year, and around 30 days in the second year.
A full description of the programme and application form can be found on the NCETM website.
9. Post 16 ~Core Maths
Core Maths in this Maths Hub
St Marylebone CE School is an Early Adopter of Core Maths and Nick McIvor SLE Maths at St Marylebone is a
Core Maths Lead.
Core Maths Support Programme (CMSP)
CfBT, in collaboration with the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics (NCETM) and
the Department for Education, is pleased to announce the launch of our new Core Maths Support
Programme.
Funded by the Department for Education, Core Maths is a new level 3 course for students in post-16
education, with UCAS points, which forms a major part of the government's plan to increase participation and
raise standards in mathematics education. The aim is that by 2020, the vast majority of all students in post16 education continue to study some form of mathematics, whether it is GCSE, A Level or the new Core
Maths qualifications introduced this year.
Core Maths is aimed at students who have passed GCSE mathematics at grade C or above but who are not
taking A Level mathematics. The course aims to help students retain, deepen and extend their mathematical
skills and understanding through the use of meaningful and relevant problems, better preparing these young
people for university, employment and life. The CMSP is strongly committed to a problem solving approach to
maths teaching and learning and provides professional development to improve pedagogy in this area and
increase the capacity of non-specialist teachers to teach mathematics.
The CfBT programme runs for two years and will be delivered through a sector-led delivery model with
regional networks providing peer-to-peer support from high-achieving partner schools and colleges. Core
Maths lead teachers and tutors are experienced maths teachers based in our partner institutions who provide
support to the schools and colleges where the new Core Maths qualifications are being taught.
The CMSP provides training and support for the Core Maths lead teachers through workshops, collaborative
working with consultants, the CMSP website and a range of other activities to assist them in their role.
Additionally, the programme benefits from a global maths network of world-leading experts in mathematics
and mathematics education as well as close collaboration with the (NCETM). This support ensures that the
Core Maths leads can provide local, contextually relevant professional development to those teaching the
new qualifications. Examples of best practice will be identified throughout the programme to be available to
all institutions implementing Core Maths from 2015.
In the first year of the programme there are more than 150 schools and colleges involved with an anticipated
total of around 5,000 students doing Core Maths. More are expected in the second year as the number of
schools and colleges implementing Core Maths expands towards a target figure of potentially more
than 200,000 students for 2020.

10. Post 16 ~increase uptake
As part of a National NCETUM Maths Hub project we are working to increase the uptake of Maths post 16
Do you want free consultancy help to increase your A level numbers post 16?
Headline: As part of a National NCETUM Maths Hub project we are working to increase the uptake of Maths
post 16. This national project has the broad aim of increasing participation levels of post-16 students in A
Level Mathematics and Further Mathematics courses, and other level 3 courses, such as Core Maths.
Opportunity: London & NW Maths Hub offers a free opportunity for consultancy support to increase your
uptake of Maths post 16.
Overview: You may be aware that from 2017 the Government will be publishing a “Level 3 Maths Measure”
(the percentage of students with GCSE mathematics at A*-C at the end of Key Stage 4 that have gone on to
take an approved level 3 maths qualification). Because the participation rate in post-16 maths across the UK is
very low in comparison to other developed countries there is a national project to increase participation in
post-16 mathematics. As part of this national project your local Maths Hub (London & NW Maths Hub St
Marylebone) is developing a tool for schools and colleges that can help them identify and implement actions
that they can take to increase participation in Maths post-16.
Wanted: We are looking for schools and colleges that would be willing to pilot the tool and help in its further
development.
If you agree to take part in this project we would like to visit your school/college and, working with your Head
of Maths, identify the strategies you already use to encourage participation in Mathematics post-16 and help
you draw up an action plan for the implementation of additional strategies that would have a positive effect
on take-up.
In addition to this, we will be holding a half-day seminar where your Head of Maths can meet other Maths
Hub partners who could help with implementing any actions you identify, as well as giving you the
opportunity to hear about the strategies other schools are using. Details here of Seminar.
ACTION: If you would like to join this national project or have any other questions please contact Maths
Consultant Jane Annets by email or phone [email protected] 07896 327 675. Please cc

We would like to invite you to a seminar at 1pm on 17th June at Elmhurst Primary School, East London that
explores ways in which we can increase participation in Mathematics post-16
We have been collaborating with three London Maths Hubs in a project to explore what we can do to
increase participation in Mathematics post-16. We have been working with a number of schools and have
produced a 'self-assessment tool' that enables schools to assess how they are doing against a set of
questions. The outcome is an action plan of suggestions for strategies that are known to have been
successful in other schools.
The experience of the schools that have tried it so far has been very positive indeed - although of course the
real test is whether participation is actually increased - which might take a little longer.
Representatives of the participating schools will be present at the seminar and you will also be given a copy of
the self assessment tool.

14. Maths Hubs FAQs
What are they?
The Maths Hubs programme for the first time brings together all Mathematics education professionals
in a national network of hubs, each locally led by an outstanding school or college, and in partnership
with neighbouring schools, colleges, universities, CPD providers, maths experts and employers. This is
a new way of harnessing all Maths teaching expertise within an area, to spread excellent practice even
more widely, for the benefit of all pupils and students.
How many Maths Hubs are there?
Thirty-four Maths Hubs were started in autumn 2014
Who do the hubs serve?
Each hub serves all schools and colleges, from nursery age to 19-year-olds in the broad geographical
area it covers.
What does the hub itself consist of?
The hub consists of much more than just the lead school or college. It consists of the broad group of
partner schools, colleges, and other institutions with a mathematics role or interest that the lead
school assembles in a strategic leadership group. These institutions are likely to be spread
geographically throughout the hub’s area.
How do teachers and schools get involved?
Individual teachers can register with the Maths Hubs programme and associate themselves with their
‘local’ hub, thereby gaining access to the online areas where they can contribute to projects and
communicate with other teachers in their area. In a similar fashion, schools can connect to the local
hub and both contribute to formulating and running activities of maths education improvement, and,
where a school needs support, benefiting from those activities as well. Get your name and school on
our Maths Hub database, email us
How does the Maths Hubs programme have a national dimension?
The leadership individuals in each hub communicate with each other to share experience and ideas in
a national network. This group also meets once a term at the National Maths Hubs Forum. This is the
forum for the development of policies with national significance. We hope the Maths Hubs Forum will
become a respected and authoritative voice of leadership in the field of Mathematics education.
