In every Maths Hub area, there’s a group of experienced teachers and education professionals who lead all the school and professional development work run by the hub.

Every Maths Hub has developed, and maintains, a group of individuals—based at a range of different schools and institutions—who lead all local work run by the hub. Known as local leaders of mathematics education, or LLMEs, these people draw on their own experience and expertise to support the work of the hub and lead other teachers' professional development. LLMEs include Maths Hub Leads, Assistant Maths Hub Leads, Work Group Leads, Cohort Leads and Community Leads.

If you participate in any professional or school development with the NCETM and your local Maths Hub, you will meet, and learn from, an LLME. These people are usually classroom-based, and draw on their own experience alongside evidence-based research to lead Maths Hubs activity in the form of Work Groups, programmes and communities.

It is important that LLMEs also have opportunity to develop themselves. Already demonstrating expertise in leading maths curriculum and pedagogy, maths professional development, and maths school development, LLMEs work in local hub-based communities to improve their own skills and knowledge.

For many LLMEs, leading Maths Hubs work is an alternative to the traditional career progression path of senior leadership. It provides the opportunity to continue teaching, and to work collaboratively with other local teachers and schools, as well as being part of a vibrant learning community with the hub's other LLMEs.
