Maths is not just about algebra problems, trigonometry formulas, multiplication tables and calculus. An understanding of mathematical concepts enables us to develop analytical thinking skills which in turn helps us analyse data, break it down into manageable chunks, observe the relationship between different numbers, calculations and functions and use the information to solve real life problems.
We use these skills when shopping (working out prices and sale reductions), cooking (calculating ingredients), exterior building or interior decoration (assessing costs, materials needed etc), personal finances (salaries, mortgages, loans, credit cards etc) and a host of other activities. Maths is important and valuable.
If children are taught mathematics from an early age, it can have a positive impact on many areas of their lives. Our resources aim to teach mathematics in a way that sparks curiosity and enjoyment of learning so that young people can use these skills to solve real world problems.
