Math PD - Curriculum Refresh

Image
  Math PD - Curriculum Refresh, 2023 I had the opportunity to attend a Mathematics PLD which covered information about the curriculum refresh.  As a whole, I'm really liking the direction in which the curriculum is shifting - embedding the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi, identifying the overarching focus and essential pedagogies within each phase of a student's learning pathway, will in my opinion help teachers moving forward. My understanding is that schools have until 2027 to familiarise and build teacher knowledge and understanding of key changes. Our school aims to implement regular meetings and discussions to build teacher capabilities in mathematics.  We hope to be more focused and intentional in our lessons for our students.  Math moderation, sharing of effective practice and/or lessons will hopefully instill inspiration in our teaching practices.
