Our impact

What is the impact of our work in schools?

• Teachers feel empowered, happy and confident about their planning and delivery of mathematics:
  • • “I have never taught maths better!”
    • “It has everything in one place!”
    • “You have given us our professional judgement back.”
    • “I now stand a little taller when I teach maths!”
• Teachers have direct access to CPD that can be implemented straight away in their classrooms.
• Teachers feel supported and have a clear understanding of what they are teaching, why they are teaching in a specific order, how skills build over time and how to teach concepts clearly.
• Workload reduced – teachers report that they have clear direction and one place for all resources, training and subject knowledge support.
• Consistency in approach across the school from Nursery to Year 6.
• Clear progression in learning is evident within lessons and in books.
• Children’s gaps in learning have been identified and addressed.
• Children are supported and challenged effectively.
• Children feel more confident within their mathematics lessons.
• Children have a greater enjoyment of mathematics.
• Subject Leaders feel confident about their school’s approach to mathematics and they are well prepared to talk about mathematics to external agencies.
• Schools with no areas to develop in mathematics following an Ofsted inspection with all schools inspected since using First4Maths Academy receiving Good or Outstanding judgements.
