The knowledge and skills gap in Australian primary mathematics classrooms
The skills gap is adding to the complexity of mathematics planning and instruction. Our webinar will help you bridge the gaps by giving you practical, real-world solutions to use in the classroom, and insights to inform your teaching.
A roundtable discussion with education experts:
Emeritus Professor Peter Sullivan

A teachers’ guide to bridging the gaps.
Primary students’ levels of mathematical knowledge and skills range from 1–5+ years, depending on the year of school, and as children progress through primary school the gap continues to widen.
But why are so many Australian students falling behind in their mathematics learning?
Our 2022 report features practical solutions and teaching advice from the Australian Maths Trust and education leaders.
