Led by Maths consultant Nathan Crook these essential network meetings will allow Maths leaders in ODST schools to meet face to face, with discussion around current issues and best practice. This is a valuable CPD and networking opportunity, funded centrally by ODST.
This session will ensure that all subject leaders are fully up-to-date with any changes to the Maths curriculum and discuss key themes for the year ahead.
We expect that a Maths leader from each ODST school will attend each of the 3 scheduled network meetings.
