Celebrating Excellence in Maths Education
So proud to share that I have been recommended as an Accredited NCETM School Development Lead. This year long programme demonstrates my ongoing commitment to empowering teachers, strengthening maths pedagogy, and championing high‑quality professional development. After 25+ years in School Improvement, I have enjoyed collaborating with other professional, learning from research and one another.

Final session of the year with our wonderful #TfMIntroductory schools. Such rich discussions about the past, present and future of maths in their schools. @em-mathshub.bsky.social @ncetm.bsky.social
🧮 Final Day of Calculator Crunch Four digits. One rectangle. A hidden pattern. Can you find the common factor? 👉 Take on the final challenge: buff.ly/U28kl5a #CalculatorCrunch
What a lovely group they are 😀 What's been the impact on my group? "Using manipulatives a lot more in as many topics as possible. Breaking tasks down into manageable chunks. Asking the why? How do you know? Practical activities to make lessons more accessible to all."
That’s a wrap on our Primary ECT Work Group 👏 A brilliant final session celebrating learning, collaboration and progress. Thank you to everyone involved – you’ve been fantastic 🌟 Keep an eye out for participant feedback coming soon…
What's going on at the Maths Hub this week? ✔️ Collaborative professional development bringing teachers and leaders together to share practice, deepen subject knowledge and support high-quality maths education. Did you know we run projects across the region? so you'll find a session near you!

In my role, I get to go to lots of different places, I've seen this fountain numerous times but thought I should take a pic in the sunshine. At @SDSA, we were discussing sometimes, always, never questions from @nrichmaths.bsky.social to expose misconceptions.
I used this problem with my #introductorytomastery WG for @em-mathshub.bsky.social - lots of discussion generalising about what could go in the box but more importantly what wouldn't go in the box. www.mathshorizons.uk
Our 2026/27 offer is here 🎉 Our Work Groups support teachers, leaders, ,educators, ECTs and TAs to deepen mathematical understanding and improve classroom practice. 👉 Explore via our website: www.emwest.org.uk #Maths #Teaching #Mastery #Teachers #CPD #TeacherCPD #Mathematics
Great to welcome colleagues to our Primary Focus (SEND) session with Laura Johnson. A thoughtful session exploring inclusive approaches to maths, practical strategies and rich professional discussion to support all learners. #Primary #Maths #SEND #Education
They've been such a super, reflective group of professionals.
We've had a busy week with multiple projects running across the region. The Years 5–8 Continuity Work Group with Vanessa led to some brilliant discussions. It’s great to hear how participants are planning to use what they have learnt in their own classrooms.” ⭐ #UKMathsChat #EduSky #Maths
That time of year ...... new diary and scheduling of dates for next academic year 2026-2027 😱
My 2nd of 3 sessions of rich tasks in #primary #maths with minimal physical prep (but lots of brain prep) with SDSA, #Leicester. So much mathematical thinking with 'simple' tasks. 💓
Today was the final session with @em-mathshub.bsky.social as part of @ncetm.bsky.social #secondary #TAs. Our final session got to grips with fractions & made links to ratio/proportion. . Hopefully I convinced them about the power of the numberline 😀
Some big mathematical thinking for SDSA in #Leicester with teachers exploring activities that don't need a worksheet, just minimal resources and some intellectual prep about the questions you might ask.
Sometimes I get to visit schools in the most beautiful locations. As part of @ncetm.bsky.social #TSM work for @em-mathshub.bsky.social, today I get to pop into Monsal Head, #derbyshire
In #MathsToday we did a task that creates the need for equivalent ratios. We used counters, the bottom row is where the real fun starts.
Some great discussions and reflections with the lovely participants of @ncetm.bsky.social and @nmmathshub.bsky.social #Y5to8continuity group.
A great start to the week for our #MasteringNumber participants! Teachers from across the region joined us on 2nd February 2026 for the Mastering Number Year 2 Session - thank you to everyone who attended and contributed 🤩 #Mastery #Maths #Mathematics #Education #Teachers
Always lovely to work with @ncetm.bsky.social #primary #ECTs in @em-mathshub.bsky.social. They are creating great learning Qs which they are sharing and reflecting on in these pictures (excuse the selfie 😀).
Thankyou 👍
Looking for simple to use, customisable axes or graph paper? I've made a couple of tools for this. Designed to be printed or pasted into PowerPoints etc. The snipping tool (win+shift+s) is your friend. mathsbot.com/printables/g... mathsbot.com/printables/a...
Our LLME day with @nmmathshub.bsky.social was partially spent thinking about ratio and S planning. What's the same and different about the representations using @ncetm.bsky.social and @oaknational.bsky.social ?
Another great session with our @ncetm.bsky.social Introduction to Mastery teachers in @em-mathshub.bsky.social. Here they are experiencing quiz quiz trade as a strategy to promote oracy in their classrooms.
Applications are now open for our LLME Programme! Join us as a Local Leader of Mathematics Education and make an impact in 2026/27 ✨ Find out more and apply here: emwest.org.uk/leadership-o... #Maths #Leadership #LLME #Education #Mathematics @ncetm.bsky.social
