Term 4 PLoL agenda:
Our final session together will be an opportunity for participants to share their leadership journey and reflect on their growth across this year. We are looking forward to a shared celebration, recognition of progress, and a collective vision for continued leadership impact across schools.
Primary Leaders of Learning (PLoL) play a key role in shaping high-quality learning and teaching across our diocese. The network will deepen impact through practical strategies, evidence-informed dialogue, and opportunities for ongoing coaching.
With a strong Learning and Teaching focus, participants build capabilities in leading learning, strengthening collaboration, and developing tools that can be applied to guide colleagues, drive improvement, and enhance classroom practice.
We look forward to leaders joining us and working together to strengthen leadership and learning in our primary schools.
Introducing the Primary Mathematics Leaders Network for 2027
We are excited to announce the return of a dedicated Primary Mathematics Leaders Network across our diocese in 2027! Driven by a passionate group of school-based mathematics leaders alongside the Education team, this network is being reinstated to build a collaborative, supportive space for leaders to connect, share expertise, and drive meaningful outcomes in primary mathematics education. Whether you are seeking to strengthen instructional leadership, explore evidence-based strategies, or collaborate on curriculum implementation, this network is designed to support you and your school's vision.
Here is a ▶️ short video from Samantha Meerbach, inviting all Maths Leaders to join the event next year.
As we prepare for a year of learning and connection, we invite all primary maths leaders to keep an eye out for upcoming session dates (on the DOBCEL PL Calendar) and lock them into your 2027 planning and calendars. Together, we look forward to building a thriving community of practice that inspires curiosity, fosters professional growth, and elevates mathematics learning across our schools.
