Since its establishment in 2017, Maths Week Scotland has got bigger and better every year – and is now an established part of the school calendar. And we’re proud to have been there every step of the way, delivering Maths Week Scotland workshops to schools across the nation each year!

We specialise in immersive learning, putting maths in context by plunging children into immersive worlds of our creation. So we have a range of tried and tested programmes, all aligned with the Curriculum for Excellence, that tie in perfectly with this year’s theme of Maths Tales! Find out more below ...

 

"The children LOVED the workshops!  Everyone, from the 5 year olds to the 11 year olds, thoroughly enjoyed the visit and they were engaged from start to finish. The most important thing was they had fun with Maths!  We arranged the visit during Maths Week Scotland and this definitely was one of the highlights of the week!" St Margaret's Primary, Johnstone

"Students all enjoyed participating in the workshops, they found it fun and challenging. (They gained) Collaboration, problem solving, interpretation and an insight into the practical applications of maths. Thank you for a great day!" The Pirate’s Challenge and Family Maths workshops, Kilchuimen Primary
