Working with us has an impact!

We were delighted to receive this email from Jane Nagy, deputy head teacher at St Mary's Catholic Primary Academy following their Ofsted inspection in February. 

The school has been working with one of our Primary local leaders of maths education Elliot Field. We were delighted to hear that Jane has valued the support and received such positive feedback in the report about maths.  

“Dear Elliot,

We have finally got our official Ofsted report through and are really pleased with the findings. I want to thank you and the support you have given through the Yorkshire and Humber Maths Hub - it has had a big impact on mathematics in our school and played a part in our successful Ofsted report.

The following quotes are from the report:

’Across the school, teachers explain mathematical concepts clearly. This helps pupils build secure knowledge and complete tasks successfully. The new curriculum in mathematics is being delivered well.’

’In early years, there are many opportunities for children to develop their mathematical skills and they count accurately.’

’The school has introduced a new mathematics curriculum that is continuing to be embedded.’

When we joined the Hub, maths looked very different than it does now. As you know, when you first came to St Mary’s we had only recently [changed resources] during our first year with the Hub. Following your guidance, our books looked good under scrutiny and the EYU are now delivering Number with confidence.

Thank you once again for your friendly and knowledgeable support. It is greatly appreciated.”

Kind regards,

Jane Nagy
Deputy Head, St Mary’s Catholic Primary Academy, Batley
