Subject Knowledge - Early Years - SPATIAL REASONING PATHWAY
Join the waitlist for 2025/26
|TBC
This project is for Early Years teachers who would like to develop their specialist knowledge for teaching maths to Reception pupils. It may be particularly relevant for teachers that have moved phases or teachers that have not received maths-specific training. This is our SPATIAL REASONING pathway.

What is involved?
This programme is designed to improve the subject knowledge and pedagogical knowledge for all practitioners teaching and supporting the learning of early maths (developing Specialist Knowledge in the Teaching of Maths – SKTM).
This page is to register to our Spatial Reasoning, Measures and Pattern pathway, based at Moulsecoomb Primary School in Brighton. Click here to register to our Number pathway.
Spatial reasoning is the ability to understand how things move and relate to each other in space, and it's a key building block for mathematical thinking.
Patterning supports the foundations for recall of the counting sequence and understanding number operations. Learning about patterns and connections will help children to make their own predictions and form logical connections.
Both of these aspects of early maths are integral foundations for mathematical thinking and understanding.
Each pathway consists of four full day workshops throughout the year. Professional learning and practice development continue throughout, with participants implementing new ideas into their daily practice. Participants will have the opportunity to plan and prepare within the Work Group sessions.
