The committee exists to promote the professional development of teachers of mathematics.
Most recently, the Committee has been finding ways in which we can implement the Membership survey results and feedback.

Peter Mattock will deliver the first session of 2023. Follow Pete on Twitter @MrMattock. An opportunity to come and see and hear about Pete’s latest book “Conceptual Maths” The point of Conceptual Maths is that mathematical learning should start with pupils learning about a mathematical idea. Facts and processes can then be tied to this idea, which allows pupils to make sense of the maths that they study and to connect their mathematical learning in a coherent way as the ideas are revisited even when the facts and processes change.
Aims: To explore some mathematical ideas, what pupils should (probably) learn about them and how these concepts then develop coherently throughout a pupil's learning journey
BOOKSTALLS
A selection of ATM and MA publications will be available at branch prices. In addition, we will also have some copies of Pete’s book at a discounted rate at the meeting.
