Webinar: Whole-School Numeracy

This webinar will consider an approach to implementing a whole-school plan for numeracy through the SSE process. Options for meaningfully integrating numeracy into the fabric of lessons across the entire curriculum in line with LAOS 2022 will be explored. The benefits of this approach compared to one which relies on numeracy moments will be discussed. Participants will get the chance to apply for follow-up school support. This webinar is suitable for school leaders, numeracy coordinators and anyone interested in exploring numeracy further.
