Multiplication forms a key part of the National Curriculum yet it is often one of the weakest areas of knowledge and understanding, for pupils and staff. Ensuring teachers and Teaching Assistants have the subject knowledge necessary to provide pupils with secure foundations in multiplication is crucial. If you are concerned that your staff and pupils are not ready for the new Year 4 Multiplication Screening Check, which becomes statutory in June 2020, this eLearning module is the perfect way to prepare. As an online course, you can choose how many staff to train and when to deliver the training, making this a flexible and cost-effective solution.

To achieve mastery of the KS1 maths curriculum, we need to ensure that all pupils have a deep conceptual understanding. Manipulatives are a key element of this, yet not all staff are confident in how to use mathematical equipment to teach the curriculum requirements. This eLearning module will explore a range of manipulatives, commonly found in all primary schools. The course is suitable for both teachers and TAs and could be delivered to a whole staff or a targeted group. As an online course, you can choose how many staff to train and when to deliver the training, making this a flexible and cost-effective solution.
