'Essential' Documentation
The following list was produced by the mathematics team. It was done in response to requests from co-ordinators who asked the team to list the essential documentation which all staff should have access to.
We feel that teachers should possess their own copies of the documents marked with an asterisk. Staff should have access to the other documents. All material listed is available on the Gateshead Grid (select appropriate category from the Primary Strategy - Numeracy home page) or the 'Publications' section of the Primary National Strategy - DfES Standards Site. (For access to this site, click here).
N.B. This list is intended to be a basic minimum. There is a great deal of useful resource and guidance material available on the above mentioned sites.
