MATHS HUBS Local Leaders of Maths Education North Regional Conference

25th Jan 2017

Organiser
MATHS HUBS

A Maths Hub Collaborative
Archimedes NE Maths Hub working in Collaboration with Great North, Yorkshire Ridings & Central Maths Hubs
A one day conference to support Local Leaders of Maths Education

Context
There is already an established network across the country of SLEs, PD leads, CPD Standard holders, MaST, LA advisors, maths hub workgroup leaders, other lead professionals and the soon to be trained Primary Mastery Specialists. This key group of “Local Leaders of Maths Education LLME” are all working with schools in various contexts and many (though not all) will no doubt be connecting with their local maths hub. Consequently, there is a clear need to provide ongoing support for this important group of system leaders and further develop ways of working together.

Aims
The overarching aim of the day is to support Local Leaders of Mathematics Education through:
providing a forum for colleagues to meet and network with other Local Leaders of Mathematics;
helping LLMEs to assess and develop further understanding of the changing landscape of mathematics education;
exploring the mathematics-specific needs of teachers locally and nationally;
identifying current provision and any gaps there might be in that provision, both now and likely to occur as a result of planned changes;
developing recommendations for future provision and exploring ways of achieving these.

In addition there will be opportunities to:

identify and explore some of the needs of Local leaders of Mathematics Education;
learn about relevant national and local developments in mathematics education;
hear about the work of other Local Leaders of Maths Education though workshop sessions.

Please note that this event is specifically for Local Leaders of Mathematics Education i.e. colleagues that are working to support mathematics education beyond their immediate setting.
