Strengthening mathematics teaching and learning.
Research-informed mathematics consultancy and professional learning for primary and secondary schools.
Working alongside school leaders and teachers to deepen mathematical understanding, strengthen pedagogical practice and develop coherent, effective mathematics programs.
Every school has its own mathematical story.
Every school has its own students, teaching team, curriculum priorities and opportunities for improvement. Effective professional learning begins by understanding that context.
Maths Club provides specialist mathematics education consultancy informed by research, classroom experience and an understanding of how students develop mathematical concepts. Rather than delivering a predetermined program, support is designed around your school’s particular needs.
This might involve strengthening teachers’ mathematical knowledge, addressing persistent misconceptions, refining curriculum sequencing or developing more effective approaches to teaching and assessment.
Professional learning grounded in classroom practice.
Meaningful professional learning is more than attending a workshop. It creates opportunities for teachers to examine mathematical ideas, discuss student thinking and reflect on how their teaching decisions influence learning.
My approach is collaborative and practical. Working alongside teachers, we explore the mathematics behind the curriculum, identify common misconceptions and design learning experiences that support deeper conceptual understanding.
This may involve examining student work, comparing representations, exploring alternative teaching approaches or collaboratively planning lessons and sequences of learning.
Consultancy shaped around your priorities.
Support can focus on a specific aspect of mathematics teaching or bring together several priorities as part of a broader professional learning plan.
Curriculum Planning & Sequencing
Developing coherent mathematics programs that build conceptual understanding over time. Support may include curriculum mapping, learning progressions, unit planning and identifying the important connections between mathematical concepts.
Mathematical Misconceptions & Conceptual Understanding
Exploring how students develop mathematical ideas, why common misconceptions arise and how teaching can respond effectively. Particular attention can be given to foundational concepts, including number, fractions, proportional reasoning and algebraic thinking.
Pedagogy & Mathematical Reasoning
Strengthening teaching approaches that promote reasoning, problem-solving and mathematical discussion. This may include explicit teaching, representations, rich mathematical tasks, questioning and purposeful differentiation.
Assessment & Student Thinking
Using assessment to understand what students know, how they are thinking and where misconceptions or gaps may exist. Support can include diagnostic and formative assessment, analysing student work and planning responsive teaching.
Teacher Professional Learning
Designing and facilitating professional learning that strengthens teachers’ mathematical content knowledge and pedagogical practice. Sessions can be tailored for whole-school teams, year-level groups, mathematics faculties or curriculum leaders.
Secondary Mathematics & VCE
Supporting secondary mathematics teams with curriculum planning, mathematical content, assessment design and effective teaching approaches. Consultancy can also address VCE mathematics curriculum, assessment and instructional priorities.
Professional learning that works for your school.
Consultancy can take different forms depending on your school’s goals, staff needs and available time.
You may be looking for a focused professional learning session, support with a particular curriculum challenge or a sustained approach to improving mathematics teaching.
Hourly, full-day and ongoing engagements are available, with planning and preparation included in the published fees.
Whole-staff professional learning
Tailored workshops, curriculum days and professional learning sessions for teaching teams.
Mathematics team support
Working with year-level teams, professional learning communities or secondary mathematics faculties on shared teaching priorities.
Curriculum planning sessions
Collaborative planning to strengthen curriculum sequencing, assessment and connections between mathematical concepts.
Ongoing consultancy
A series of sessions designed to support implementation, reflection and continued professional growth over time.
A collaborative approach to meaningful improvement.
The process is flexible, but every engagement begins with understanding your school’s context and identifying what you want to achieve.
Understand
We begin with a conversation about your school’s mathematics program, current challenges, strengths and professional learning priorities.
Design
Together, we identify clear goals and develop a tailored approach that considers your teachers, students and school context.
Work Together
Professional learning and consultancy are delivered through practical, collaborative experiences grounded in mathematical understanding and classroom practice.
Reflect
We consider what has been learned, what is working and what further support may be valuable as your school continues developing its mathematics program.
