Abstract: Affect -a term used in psychology to refer to feeling or emotion.Bivariate -a statistical term that refers to analyses that involve only two variables.Cluster -a statistical term that refers to the grouping of similar units of analyses together.For example, pupils are clustered into schools and schools are clustered into geographical areas.This is an example of natural (systemic) hierarchical pupil clustering. CPD -continuing professional development.High mastery -a category derived from application of implementation criteria related to a model of mastery pedagogy indicating implementation at a high level.Inspire Maths -primary mathematics programme using translations of Singapore textbooks as core texts. Linear Regression -a statistical modelling technique for examining variation in a scale/continuous outcome variable through the introduction of (scale or categorical) explanatory variables. Logistic Regression -a statistical modelling technique for examining variation in a categorical outcome variable through the introduction of (scale or categorical) explanatory variables.Mastery at or above threshold level -a category derived from application of implementation criteria related to a model of mastery pedagogy.When the meaning is clear in context this is shortened to implementation of mastery or similar.Mastery specialist -an alumni of the Primary Mathematics Teaching for Mastery Specialists Programme with responsibility for leading change in their own school and supporting change in six to seven other schools, as well as collaborating with Maths Hub leadership and other mastery specialists. Mathematics Mastery -primary mathematics programme, developed initially by the Ark Multi Academy Trust informed by Singapore mathematics curriculum and pedagogy.Mathematics Teacher Exchange -exchange programme involving 48 English primary schools and teachers in Shanghai in 2014/15 and 70 English primary schools in 2016/17.This is abbreviated as 'MTE' or 'the exchange'. Mathematics Teacher Exchange cohort 1 school -a school selected by the localMaths Hub which participated in the exchange in 2014/15 and hosted a Shanghai teacher and in nearly all cases had one or more members of staff visit Shanghai.In the Mathematics Teacher Exchange lead -used to denote school staff who had been directly involved in the exchange programme and/or leading wider dissemination within their school and, in some cases, their local and wider Maths Hub Network.Note that in previous reports references were made to 'lead primary teacher'.However, as the Teaching for Mastery Programme has developed, leadership and promotion of teaching for mastery has extended to other teachers such as mastery specialists.This is abbreviated as 'MTE lead'.Maths Hubs -a network of hubs across England each led or jointly led by a school or college.Maths Hubs work in partnership with neighbouring schools, colleges, universities, CPD providers, maths experts and employers.There were 32 Maths Hubs in England at the start of the exchange and as of November 2015 there are 35 Maths Hubs.Maths No Problem -primary maths programme using translations of Singapore textbooks as core texts. MTE Mastery pedagogy-the name given in the report to teaching approaches aiming to develop mastery informed by East Asian practices and used, in particular, to refer to practices of MTE schools.MTE Mastery pedagogy is a more general description than the specific 'teaching for mastery' promoted by the NCETM.Multilevel -a statistical term that relates to statistical modelling with more than one cluster level.A 2-level analysis might include school and individual pupil levels.
