Abstract

Taking ownership of your primary mathematics curriculum - the role of research in moving us away from 'Stepford' teaching
Caught up in an overly prescriptive curriculum, our talented teachers can sometimes lose sight of what they are doing, and why. Teachers need to be able to talk with confidence about their mathematics policy and guidelines and to shape the design of their curriculum by engaging in their own pedagogical research and that of others. Going forward, we need to invest in our teachers to give them the time and the ability to do this. Professor Jenny Field has spent many years engaged in research driven curriculum design and development. In this session, she will share some of these findings and best practice on the way forward.
