Regional ITT Providers Communities

Overview

Regional ITT Providers Communities facilitate:

• Collaboration between ITT Providers
• Connections between ITT Providers and Maths Hubs

The aim is to support ITT Providers to collaboratively reflect on how best to help trainees understand the Five Big Ideas in Teaching for Mastery, so that they can develop classroom practices that allow all children to learn and enjoy mathematics. 

By connecting ITT Providers with Maths Hubs, further opportunities for ITTs can be accessed, such as arranging lesson observations in schools where teaching for mastery is central to maths teaching and learning.

In addition, the Regional ITT Providers Communities respond to local needs, addressing priorities identified by community members.

Who can be a member of a Regional ITT Providers Community?

All DfE-accredited ITT Providers with responsibility for leading maths provision and their local delivery partners, alongside members of each Maths Hubs Leadership and Management team, are invited to join a regional community.

These regional communities are led by a pair of Regional Community Leads (representing both Higher Education and school-based provision).
