Eligibility

Lighthouse Maths is a very popular program with a limited number of places. As such, a selection process is necessary to determine who will be selected for participation each year. When selecting schools, ICSEA, NAPLAN and the school’s alignment with the program are considered. To help us determine this last factor, please answer the following questions.

Lighthouse Maths trains teachers in a structured inquiry approach to learning mathematics that has a strong evidence-base of improving both performance and motivation for students in mathematics. How is the strategic direction of the school aligned with this? *

What other outside support has the school received (or is the school about to receive) in maths education? *

Why does your school need this program? *

The ultimate aim of Lighthouse Maths is to train two teachers, who will then use their experience to go on to train other teachers in their school. How will the school support the two participant teachers share their knowledge and expertise beyond the completion of the program? *
