ExploreSecondary Maths Teaching Training
Maths matters more than almost any subject for a young person’s future, and secondary maths carries real pressure: GCSE outcomes, resits, and pupils who arrive believing they ‘can’t do maths’. This training helps your maths department teach for understanding and confidence, so more pupils succeed.
Below, we explain what our secondary maths training involves, and how it helps you raise maths outcomes.
What Is Secondary Maths Teaching Training?
It’s practical training that helps secondary maths teachers strengthen their practice. We cover teaching for understanding, tackling misconceptions, effective questioning and reasoning, building fluency, supporting lower-attaining pupils, and preparing pupils for GCSE and resits.
We ground it in what works in maths teaching and tailor it to your department, your specification, and your priorities.
Who Is This Training For?
It’s designed for secondary education settings: maintained schools, academies, and multi-academy trusts, and post-16 providers. It suits maths departments, non-specialist maths teachers, and early career teachers. Trusts often run it across schools to raise maths outcomes.
Many schools ask for it to raise GCSE maths results, support resit pupils, or strengthen maths teaching across the department.
