Catholic Education SA is seeking expressions of interest from teachers holding leadership roles in mathematics and/or numeracy to join the Primary Numeracy Network.  The network aims to: 

• build expertise in numeracy and mathematics teaching and learning;
• build capacity in leading numeracy and mathematics at school level;      
• use data to inform learning in mathematics and numeracy;
• explore ways to engage parents in mathematics and numeracy;
• create opportunities for the leaders to network;      
• engage with current trends / issues in education, particularly in the area of mathematics and numeracy;    
• implement the Australian Curriculum in their school.    

In 2014, the Network teachers will meet as a Professional Learning team for one day each term.  Participating teacher leaders will be expected to attend all four sessions.  They will also be expected to undertake follow-up activities in their schools.  

The dates, venues and times are as follows:
