Our NPQLPM offers you a tailored programme of professional learning for the following:

  • Colleagues who have, or are aspiring to have, responsibility for leading maths across a primary key-stage or school.
  • Teachers familiar with mastery approaches to teaching primary maths, who want to improve leadership skills in this area.
  • Subject leaders in a school already engaged in the primary Teaching for Mastery programme or a similar programme.

Before applying for this NPQ, you should have a secure understanding of mastery approaches to teaching maths from the Teaching for Mastery programme, or an equivalent programme. This can be confirmed by your headteacher after registration with the DfE.

  • Grow the next generation of primary maths leaders with the skills and knowledge to use the evidence-base for the benefit of their settings and children.
  • Retain the best teaching and pastoral professionals who are excellent, collaborative role models for their schools and communities.
  • Inspire leaders who can develop strong whole school cultures of primary maths no matter the current circumstances of the setting they are working in.
