Description

Individual grants are available to become a Maths Hub Lead School for the SHaW Maths Hub and, separately, Yorkshire and the Humber Maths Hub. The indicative value of each individual grant is up to £900k. The actual value is dependent on fixed and variable costs based on actual hub delivery expenditure. Maths Hubs are led by one Lead School, College or Trust that is held accountable for the Maths Hub activity funded by the Department for Education through a Grant Funding Agreement. More information about the Maths Hubs Programme can be found on the NCETM website, including more information about individual hubs. Following many successful years of leading a Maths Hub, two of our Maths Hub Lead Schools will no longer continue the role in the academic year 2024/25. The Department is undertaking a competitive grant process to appoint and fund two new Lead Schools and/or accountable entities (lead school, college or Trust) for the following Maths Hubs: - ShaW Maths Hub (covering Herefordshire; Shropshire; Telford and Wrekin; Wolverhampton) - Yorkshire and the Humber Maths Hub (covering City of Kingston upon Hull; Kirklees; North East Lincolnshire; North Lincolnshire; Wakefield) The successful applicant must have an eligible named school or college located in one of the local authority districts listed above for the hub. Leading a Maths Hub is a significant and demanding system leadership role, which has the opportunity to enhance the teaching of mathematics education in your local area. By fostering a culture of collaboration and support between teachers of maths, both within their own schools and schools in the local area, the Maths Hub programme has been paving the way as an outstanding demonstration of how high-quality professional development can improve pupil outcomes and teacher satisfaction. As a Lead School, College or Trust running a Maths Hub you will have the opportunity to be part of this effort as a national network of schools which are transforming mathematics education and changing the lives of children across England. Each Maths Hub is open to working with any school or college, from Reception through to post-16, within the broad geographical area that it covers. The hubs draw on the expertise of local leaders of mathematics education across their area and the support of strategic partners including Teaching School Hubs, universities, maths experts and employers. The new Lead School will be expected to continue and build upon the successful work of the previous lead. The brand of SHaW Maths Hub and Yorkshire and the Humber Maths Hub are well established in their local area, it is expected that the Maths Hub brand will remain the same to provide continuity for the schools being supported by the hub.
