IB Mathematics Workshops
Effective workshop work in IB Mathematics should improve planning, sharpen department thinking, and give teachers practical routines they can use immediately. I design professional learning that is credible, specific, and close to classroom reality.
Workshop design

Immediate usefulness
Professional learning built to change planning, discussion, assessment, and instructional choices quickly.
Subject specificity
Mathematics-focused work where pedagogy, curriculum, and assessment need to stay intellectually serious.
Wider school context
Support that connects IB expectations with the realities of leaders trying to improve teaching at scale.
Professional Learning
The strongest professional learning gives teachers something clearer to think about and something stronger to do when they return to the classroom.
My workshops draw on work as an IBEN Programme Leader, examiner, curriculum leader, and consultant. That means the sessions stay grounded in both IB expectations and the daily complexity of teaching mathematics well.
Sessions can be adapted for a single department, a whole-school context, or a wider international school network. The design changes, but the principle does not: make the work thoughtful, actionable, and close to real instructional decisions.
Inquiry
Helping teachers design better questions, better tasks, and better mathematical discussion.
Assessment
Using evidence more intelligently to improve instruction, intervention, and student thinking.
Inclusion
Practical approaches for dyscalculia-informed support and broader inclusive mathematics practice.
Leadership
Professional learning designed for school leaders who want classroom impact rather than performance theatre.
Selected Themes
These sessions can be adapted by audience, timescale, and school context.
Pedagogy
How to create lessons where students do more of the intellectual work.
Sessions focus on questioning, task design, explanation, discussion structure, and the relationship between inquiry and mathematical precision.
Assessment
Moving beyond data collection into decisions that change instruction.
Teachers and leaders look at how evidence can reveal misconceptions, guide response, and sharpen intervention planning without becoming bureaucratic noise.
IB systems
Department routines that make Internal Assessment work more consistent and less stressful.
The focus is on supervision, checkpoints, moderation, and how to keep the process aligned with assessment expectations.
Inclusion
Practical ways to maintain mathematical challenge while improving access.
This work supports departments thinking about intervention, scaffolding, teacher language, and more deliberate support for diverse learners.
IBEN Accreditation
Schools usually want workshop facilitation from someone who understands both IB expectations and the wider improvement context around mathematics departments.
Teachers benefit from sessions that clarify expectations without reducing them to slogans or compliance talk.
Mathematics CPD should stay mathematically serious while also addressing pedagogy, curriculum, and inclusion.
Leadership teams often want workshop work that helps departments develop more shared language and more consistent practice.
The most useful workshops leave behind next steps that teachers and leaders can actually implement rather than admire briefly and forget.
