Are you using Ochre resources in your Mathematics lessons?
Teach Well has partnered with Ochre Education and education systems across Australia to support teachers and schools to get the most from the Ochre Education materials in Mathematics. The Teaching for Impact in Mathematics (TIM) Series includes a one-day workshop, a self-reflection and video coaching cycle for each teacher and optional impact tracking to collect and reflect on student outcomes data.
The course is set to run in Western Australia in 2026, however please reach out to [email protected] if you are interested in the TIM Series for another state.

“Thank you! This has changed my teaching for the better and reignited my passion for teaching as my students are more engaged and I am able to check their understanding more easily.”
"I am grateful for this workshop. It has brought back some of the joy of teaching for me. I had been struggling to get the class to actively participate, but with these methodologies, I’ve noticed a significant change. It also helps me quickly identify mistakes and provide feedback that addresses the students' specific needs."
"This course has helped me tremendously in developing my teaching knowledge and has allowed me to trial new practices in the classroom to support high participation and engagement."
TIM Series Impact
Across 2024, the Teaching for Impact in Mathematics (TIM) Series & Leading TIM Series was run in Melbourne, Victoria and Adelaide, South Australia and consisted of 23 professional learning days, supporting 2000+ teachers and leaders across the Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools system and the Catholic Education South Australia system. Participants with a teaching load filmed their classroom and reflected on their use of full participation tactics, receiving expert feedback from the Teach Well coaching team.

- 100% of teachers feel they can more effectively check for student understanding regularly across a lesson or review to elicit information to inform their teaching
- 98% of leaders observed changes to the teaching practice of participants in the TIM Series
- 100% of leaders intend to continue to support teachers with implementing high-impact instructional practices
