OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Webinar Lunchtime Series: Two children and maths – Improving attainment for children in care
Care-experienced children’s prospects in school and beyond are particularly harmed if they have difficulties in reading and mathematics. Previous trauma and neglect mean that they are often significantly underperforming. Early support in mathematics is vital, but many teachers feel less confident in helping these vulnerable children in maths than in literacy. Rose will use the stories of Skye and Ronan, both aged 8, in different schools and circumstances, to discuss the children’s experience of maths in school, and to think about how to break the pattern of underachievement in this important area of the curriculum.
