Which do you use across your Trust, Laura?

Up to now we have had a bespoke school curriculum that we wrote. The trust are buying one in and I just wondered what other people’s experiences were because I know there will be pros and cons for all of them.

Yes, definitely pros and cons across all those you mention above. Which one is your Trust going for? Has it been in place in other schools in the Trust for a while? Will your school receive plenty of CPD to move to the new scheme?

Ark Maths Mastery, not in place within the trust at the minute. I’m hoping that there will be ample CPD but I’m wary with it being implemented during the academic year!

Wait. You’re changing scheme during an academic year? Crikey. That’s a risky decision.

Would you like a chat about implications of bringing in curriculum? There’s a *lot* to be aware of.

lauradeamer.bsky.social•148 days ago

It’s coming in, whether I like it or not, but I would appreciate a chat if you have time on things to be aware of and pitfalls to avoid as curriculum leader x
