For over a decade, “mastery” has shaped how we teach mathematics — bringing depth, precision, and structure. But mastery was never the final destination. In this episode, we explore how maths leadership can now move beyond mastery, towards nurturing true mathematical thinking: curiosity, creativity, and problem-solving at the heart of every lesson.

* Why mastery was only ever the foundation

* How to help teachers move from process to thinking

* What it means to build a culture of curiosity in maths

* The link between reasoning, representation, and imagination

* How leaders can help staff see maths as something to be explored, not just taught
