Who can take part?

This new and FREE programme from the NCETM provides Year 7 teachers (and LSAs), with professional development and resources to support their students who have not met Age Related Expectations (ARE) by the end of KS2, particularly those whose attainment is in the bottom 20-30% of the national cohort.
Up to two Year 7 teachers (or one teacher and one LSA) can register for the programme.  (If you were on the programme in 2025/26 your school may register again but there is a requirement that the participants are new).
