We have developed this Work Group following requests to support further development of EAL and maths. It will support all children in classes with a high proportion of EAL pupils to develop deep knowledge, understanding and confidence to be well prepared for the secondary mathematics curriculum.
A participant from last year:
“A massive thank you to Qamar and Sandeep for their investment in the EAL and Maths Work Group with SHaW Maths Hub – it has had an impact!
Attainment for children with English as an additional language in Mathematics has significantly improved this year and now exceeds the national average attainment.”
Qamar Maqsood - Multicultural Development Team Leader/EAL Advisory Teacher for Telford Council, having previously been Secondary Head of Maths.
Qamar has planned and previously co-led this Work Group with Sandeep Vashist, with additional contributions from SHaW Maths Hub Assistant Maths Hub Lead Lou Hoskyns-Staples.
