In 2025, the Government will be supporting schools again with providing additional professional learning days to allocate to implementing the new Maths Curriculum. While the actual dates have not been confirmed, we have allowed for these in our calculations to aid in your own home planning. Some flexibility may be required if a certain date is enforced on schools, but I am hoping that we will have a range of dates to choose from as we did in 2024.
