Changing your curriculum is a big decision.
But we can make sure the transition adds up
Changing your mathematics curriculum can be daunting, especially if you're not seeing the results you want from your current programme. But you're not alone. Mathematics education in the UK is facing significant challenges. Last year only 71% of primary school pupils achieved the expected standard in maths, down from 79% just a few years ago. The decline in maths is real, but it doesn’t have to be.
At Ark Curriculum Plus, we're here to help you confidently transition to Mathematics Mastery Primary, knowing that you're making the right choice for your pupils. We offer professional development and training for educators to ensure smooth and successful transitions to Mathematics Mastery Primary, bringing you the results your pupils and wider school community deserve.
A framework for success
To achieve powerful teaching that changes lives, we know that teachers must have strong subject knowledge, the best evidence-based subject pedagogies, rigorous assessment and effective planning, all working together.
That’s why we developed the AC+ 5-Step Improvement Process, based on over a decade’s experience of transforming subject results in one of the most respected MATs. An expert consultant will guide you through every step so that you can be confident in success. This is backed by all the integrated teaching, planning and assessment resources to make real change achievable.
We will work directly with your teachers and your leadership to create an improvement plan for your school. Our team of highly skilled educational consultants will introduce, embed and sustain evidence-based teaching strategies that are independently shown to lead to stronger pupil outcomes, more confident teachers and consistency of teaching and learning across all year groups.
Here’s how it works…
