The NCETM Standard: Aims 1. A single standard including quality indicators associated with NCETM’s three ‘strands’ of effective continuous professional development: • broadening and deepening mathematics content knowledge, • developing mathematics-specific pedagogy, which includes appreciating how learners engage with mathematics and likely obstacles to progression; • embedding effective mathematics pedagogy in practice. 2. A workable registration and submission process 3. Achievement of the Standard for CPD by many of the providers in the initial pilot: [since risen to 130+] 4. Completion of the NCETM Standard ensures provider simultaneously meets TDA CoP

Group Activity • In small groups discuss the key changes and implications as you perceive them arising from the closure of the National Strategies and the establishment of the “Teaching Schools” era. • Are there other key developments we should be preparing for?
DfE Executive agencies • National College of school leadership • Training and Development Agency • The Standard promotes equality of opportunity and consistency of information flow about provision. • The NCETM Events calendar is a useful outlet for CPD events
Group activity • How can and should the NCETM support PD providers in the changing landscape to provide an equality of opportunity for all schools and teachers? • If the NCETM maintains a “Directory of Providers” what might this “look like”? • Is it a good idea? (VOTE)
