‘FUTURE PROOFING THE CURRICULUM’.

Title: Those who can, teach teachers

Dates: Friday 28th February 11:00 - Saturday 1st March 2025 14:45

Venue: Foxborough Primary School Slough SL3 8TX

Keynote speakers: Jenni Ingram, Stef Sullivan, Geoff Wake, Judy Hornigold, Mike Askew

Cost: £50 (members) £70 (for non-members)

We will be joining with NAMA members for a CPD Saturday Extravaganza. There will be 5 key note speakers: Jenni Ingram, Stef Sullivan, Geoff Wake, Judy Hornigold and Mike Askew and 9 workshops. 

This seminar briefly outlined some theoretical perspectives on social justice in mathematics education related to the ethical and social responsibilities of educators. Sally and Manjinder illustrated these perspectives through two mathematics teacher education projects that are designed with critical pedagogy and curriculum content for social justice in mind. Manjinder shared experiences of lesson design for critical mathematics education and pedagogy including ideas from her primary and secondary student teachers. Sally illustrated design research that illustrates critical pedagogy and critical creativity- tackling the deficit perception of marginalised young people in mathematics classrooms as they make the transition from primary to secondary school.

They offered illustrations, ideas and  resources to start a conversation about social justice in the mathematics classroom that AMET can move forwards with.

Thursday 20^th March 2025 from 4:00 - 5:00 pm

UCL's Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability Education are developing a set of professional development modules for primary and secondary mathematics teachers. This webinar is an opportunity to get valuable feedback from colleagues to further shape the development of the mathematics modules.  The webinar will begin with an overview, sharing the work already developed by the Centre, followed by break out groups to enable Nasreen and Suman to get your feedback on the ideas they are developing for the modules. They will wrap up with a joint plenary to gather final thoughts from all participants. 

Dr Nasreen Majid (Primary) and Dr Suman Ghosh (Secondary) have many years’ experience as classroom teachers and teacher educators, and both are now based in the IoE at UCL.

This took place on 20th February 2024. The slides from this session are in the Resources section.

Please note the link for the CCCSE PD materials, so far. 

AMET, ATM, MA, NAMA and NANAMIC worked together in order to provide a joint conference of mathematics subject associations for our members in 2023. 

The theme was Finding the Common Factors.

Date: Monday 3rd and Tuesday 4th April, 2023

Venue: Warwick University

Since our first webinar in July 2020, we have gone on to run a series of these. They have generally been quite popular, giving colleagues some quick CPD and a chance to connect with others (virtually). We are interested in hearing your ideas for future webinars. Please get in touch!

During her webinar Balbir Kaur set up a Jamboard for us to share ideas about social justice and decolonising the mathematics curriculum in ITE. Please continue to contribute your ideas.
