Continuing Professional Development

Matrix Maths Hub

The Maths Hubs programme is Department for Education funded and led by the NCETM (National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics). We bring together mathematics education professionals in a collaborative national network of 40 Hubs each locally led by an outstanding school or college, to develop and spread excellent practice, for the benefit of all pupils and students.

The Matrix Maths Hub supports schools and colleges to achieve excellence in mathematics education from Early Years to post-16. We are based in Bishop’s Stortford at The Hertfordshire and Essex High School.

Saffron Teaching School Hub areas covered:

  • The Matrix Maths Hub covers Harlow and the whole of Hertfordshire.
  • Braintree, Chelmsford, Epping Forest and Uttlesford are covered by the Venn Essex Maths Hub.

2024-25 Catalogue

We're delighted to share our new 2024/25 catalogue detailing all we have to offer for the year ahead.

We hope you enjoy browsing through our range of Communities, Programmes and Work Groups and encourage you to complete an Expression of Interest form on our website for any that catch your eye. Remember they are all fully funded by the NCETM Maths Hubs Programme so participating schools can take advantage of this CPD training completely free of charge.

We’re particularly excited to be offering a NEW Work Group for 2024-25: Securing Foundations at Year 7. This has been introduced so that secondary maths teachers can better equip themselves to help students with gaps in their understanding from KS1 and KS2.

We are also pleased to be running our ever-popular Years 5-8 Continuity Work Group in 2024-25 which has proven to be invaluable in strengthening students’ transition from primary to secondary school.

If you have any questions about the Matrix Maths Hub offering for 2024-25, contact rebecca.conroy@matrixmathshub.co.uk.

Developing Core Maths Pedagogy Work Group

This Work Group aims to explore and develop the links between the Mathematics required in Core Maths to its application in the Real World. Whether this is its application in specific jobs and careers or simply day-to-day life in which people don’t realise they are using Maths. Teachers will develop new approaches to hooking students in and engaging them in real life contexts and problems.
