About Scitech
Scitech is a not-for-profit organisation proudly supported by the Western Australian Government through the Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation
Our program develops the capability of primary teachers as leaders in inquiry maths approaches, with a focus on the use of problem solving and reasoning techniques to develop a deeper conceptual understanding of maths through challenging tasks.
Through workshops, coaching and networking sessions with peers; it aims to empower primary educators with a tool kit to enhance their teaching practice and improve student engagement and achievement in maths.
Lighthouse Maths is underpinned by the foundations of our high impact Alcoa Champions of Maths program, with successful measurable results developed using the latest research on effective maths teaching techniques, drawing information from leading maths education experts worldwide.
Through the support of Chevron, this program is provided for free over the course of a year to select schools, and is available for delivery to primary schools in the Perth metro region during 2022. Each school will nominate two teachers who will participate directly in the training.
For more information, please see the Lighthouse Maths – Information pack_2022 and view a recorded information session on the program here.
