Opportunities for 2026-27

Primary Mastery Specialist

The NCETM and the West Yorkshire Maths Hub are now seeking to recruit a twelfth cohort of expert primary school teachers to develop as Primary Mastery Specialists.

The first year in post is a training and development year, either establishing or embedding mastery in their own schools, with the support of the senior leadership team. In the second year the training focus shifts to develop Mastery Specialists in their role of working with other schools. In the second and subsequent years, specialists will engage in a variety of work, including leading Work Groups, which support schools to introduce and continue their approaches to Teaching for Mastery.
