NCETM and Maths Hubs Covid recovery resources

Materials to support teachers and schools planning and delivering Covid recovery maths teaching at both primary and secondary level are available from the NCETM. All are accessible from the dedicated Covid support page on the new NCETM website. For primary schools and teachers, there are resources linked to the DfE guidance published in July this year.


These resources include ready-to-use training materials, a ‘getting started’ video and a suite of 79 PowerPoints focusing on the ready-to-progress criteria found in the new DfE guidance. The latter would be ideal for schools to use as part of the National Tutoring Programme or for any dedicated catch-up tutoring. The 180 primary video lessons produced during lockdown are also still available. Each lesson has an accompanying teacher guide and a teacher editable PowerPoint.

For secondary schools, an evidence-based guidance document to support discussions about recovery curriculum content and pedagogy has been produced with a one-hour training session and accompanying materials to help KS3 teachers and maths departments understand the implications for Year 7 of the DfE primary guidance. More materials, including guidance videos and departmental training sessions, will be added soon.

For any schools and teachers wanting to get involved with the work of their local Maths Hub to support Covid recovery, recruitment is still taking place for projects running in 2020/21.
