I am allowed to explore my ideas
in Maths…
I contribute to lessons, often using
show me boards, and know that my
answers are valued, even when they
contain mistakes because we can
always learn from our mistakes.
Safe
I work in a positive learning
environment in Maths…
I can experiment with concepts and
ideas safe in the knowledge that a
mistakes usually present an
opportunity for reflection and
improvement.
Included
The expectation in Maths is that
everyone is included …

that everyone makes progress and no

Consider your own Practice & Challenges around
the following:
• Supporting all staff to meet the needs of all
• How you are managing to support pupils in the
wider definition of additional support needs
• How your curriculum is being or could be
adapted to better meet the needs of all
• Examples of how you are raising attainment for
those with additional support needs
Inclusive, good-quality education is a foundation for dynamic and equitable societies.
