Mastery Flow - Mathematics:

The Mastery Flow Model is a process in which learners progress from new content to deep understanding. We use this specific model for teaching and learning within maths at Westerings.

We define deep understanding as:

  1. Pupil’s long term retention.

  2. Pupil’s ability to apply learning in a variety of context including unfamiliar context.

  3. It is about pupils knowing what they know.
