Congratulations to our Year 6 Scholars who have now graduated from the FTS Programme and completed their ECT years! We're so proud of your achievements thus far, as well as your passion for teaching maths and physics. Do keep in touch!

It's been an absolute pleasure - and congratulations for all your hard work. Hope to see you again at next year's conference as an alumna! Do keep in touch.

At this year's FTS National Conference, we held an alumni roundtable for the first time. Three of our Scholar graduates discussed teaching topics including classroom technique and pedagogy, navigating exam season, and student success stories. Read more: futureteachingscholars.com/news/fts-alumn…

📢 Speaker announcement! We are thrilled that Mark McCourt Mark McCourt is a returning speaker at next month's FTS National Conference. Mark is a leading figure in mathematics education and leadership, specialising in professional development and teaching for mastery.

It's brilliant to have you, Adam - really looking forward to your session this morning. And no teacher conference is complete without MWBs!

We kicked off our final National Conference in true FTS style last night: with a maths quiz hosted by Ben Sparks and Rob Eastaway - two brilliant minds from Maths Inspiration. Today, our Scholars are attending a series of insightful and inspiring sessions. Stay tuned for more!

"Every school is unique - and I would encourage you to find a school that allows you to grow." Our first keynote session of the National Conference is underway, led by the brilliantly insightful Ross M. McGill Esq..

"Checking for prior knowledge is an absolute no-brainer." Adam Robbins is currently leading a session on responsive teaching at the FTS National Conference, questioning just how often teachers consider students' prior knowledge as part of their planning.

"Test the boundaries of a concept, see where it falls apart." Mark McCourt is currently delivering a compelling session around meaning in mathematics. Our Scholars are hooked, trying to figure out what "smub" means!

We've also invited members of our alumni network to host sessions for their FTS peers. Habib's popular session on progression into leadership emphasises just how ambitious and dedicated to the teaching profession our Scholars are. Thank you Habib for returning!

Do you know your Mobius bands from your hexaflexagons?! The brilliantly creative mind of Katie Steckles is on full display in this afternoon's FTS National Conference session on the mathematics of paper!

In one of our final sessions of the FTS National Conference, Emily Giubertoni leads a workshop on practical motivation strategies - helping students to meet their potential and improve outcomes.
