I work with at Learning Academies Trust. @CODEMathsHub @learningatceo

Thanks for a thought-provoking day @NCETM. The rich discussions & opportunities to collaborate & listen to the experiences of others on the School Development Lead training day were really beneficial. I’m looking forward to implementing what I’ve learned with the subject leaders.

across the city of Plymouth.

At Learning Academies Trust we collaborate & share good practice as much as possible in order to benefit all of our children. @SalisburyRdPrim & @HighViewPlym have both hosted @NCETM work groups over the last couple of weeks, which will have a positive impact on many children

Mayflower Community Academy have a brilliant coaching programme in place where pupils from Devonport High School for Boys work with their pupils to develop their confidence & understanding in maths.The children really enjoy these 1:1 coaching sessions. @learningatceo @CiaraEMoran

It was great to hear and see the year 1 pupils at Hooe Primary confidently use dienes to make two digit numbers and describe their composition using the relevant vocabulary and sentence stems to frame their answers. Super maths! @WhiteRoseEd @CiaraEMoran @learningatceo

Plaistow Hill are the Learning Academies Trust @TTRockStars Battle champions.Congratulations! 🥳 @PomphlettS achieved 2nd place & @MountStreetPlym 3rd.Across the schools, the children answered around 2 million answers correctly in less than 2 weeks - what a brilliant achievement!.

mathematics effectively, benefiting the pupils within our schools. I’m looking forward to working with @CODEMathsHub through this role. It’s exciting to plan and hear about the fantastic work that is taking place. The future is bright for mathematics! @NCETM

It was a privilege today to attend my first board meeting for @CODEMathsHub. The hub’s commitment to schools across Cornwall and Devon is inspiring as they are providing teachers, teaching assistants and subject leaders with the expertise and knowledge needed to teach….

We’re over half way through the Learning Academies Trust TTRS battle. Plaistow Hill are currently on track to become champions. @MountStreetPlym are closely behind followed by @PomphlettS.Keep playing everyone & the winners will be announced on Friday.@learningatceo @TTRockStars

The ‘Learning through stories is just for KS1’ webinar @WhiteRoseEd conference was very interesting. The use of sentence stems alongside a book can provide a stimulus & excellent oracy opportunities in maths lessons. Definitely an area I want to explore further in the future.

It was really beneficial to watch a Y4 & Y5 @NCETM Mastering Number session & unpick each lesson linking to the 5 big ideas on teaching mastery as part of @CODEMathsHub workgroup this morning.The children @HighViewPlym were confident using the key vocabulary & making connections.

It was fantastic to work with TAs from across @learningatuk to develop skills in using manipulatives for different concepts. I was pleased to hear the TAs work in KS2 so our older children have the opportunity to use manipulatives to support their mathematical understanding.

It was a privilege to collaborate with the EY & SEN leads @learningatuk to deliver CPD on supporting children working BARE and/or with SEND in maths. Great team work to draw upon expertise & share knowledge & good practice so our children receive the best possible education.

Take a look at these written explanations from some of our children in years 1 to 5 @woodfieldplym and @MountStreetPlym. It’s great to see the children using the correct mathematical vocabulary and stem sentences to fully explain their thinking. @learningatceo @WhiteRoseEd

representation that can help them solve problems. I’m looking forward to seeing the bar model used even more within our schools to support our children with their problem solving. @WhiteRoseEd @learningatceo @CiaraEMoran

Our maths subject leaders had a fantastic training session tonight on using bar modelling effectively for a range of mathematical concepts. Through using a bar model consistently from early years through to year 6, the children can become confident in using the bar as a pictorial.

I’m looking forward to delivering this training on supporting children working BARE and/or with SEN in maths alongside our LAT Early Years Lead and LAT SEND Lead. We’re all very passionate about providing the very best provision for all our learners. Contact @PlymouthTSA to book.
