NCP18-11b Intervention in a Mastery context
Event Information
Description
Whole class teaching is becoming embedded across schools using a teaching for mastery approach. It is evident that models of intervention to support children to keep up need exploring further, to ascertain how schools can best include this vital aspect of teaching for mastery
This Work Group is particularly looking at how we can develop Mastery for pupils who are falling well behind expected progress or who are working with SEN, it is hoped to have representatives from both Secondary and Primary schools.
The project will consider of different models of intervention in a teaching for mastery context to ensure that mathematics teaching has maximum impact for the children. Participant teachers and leaders will further their understanding of teaching for mastery by using case studies and research to inform their practice. Schools will trial a model of their choice in school and will document their observations to share with others as part of the national project.
We will look in detail at the issues, research and strategies for teaching, learning and assessment of maths with a reference to those pupils with learning difficulties in this area.
This Work Group will focus on how to teach mathematics for mastery within the context of SEN. The project will aim to:
- Develop teacher’s knowledge and understanding of the early stages of learning in maths
- Deepen their understanding of Intervention in Teaching for Mastery context
- Consider what an effective mastery approach to teaching, learning and assessment of mathematics for pupils with SEN looks like
- Develop the use of manipulatives and concrete modelling for SEN students
- Use action research in teaching for mastery in the SEN context
