Maths Workshops for Secondary Schools in Ireland

All of our maths workshops have been carefully designed to put into context and actively promote to both the Northern Ireland Curriculum and the Curriculum for Ireland.

Tapping into pupils’ own creativity, our unashamedly fun workshops engage, motivate and, crucially, challenge the children and young people we work with, providing them with meaningful contexts in which to practise their skills.

You can view our maths workshops for primary schools in Ireland here.

Our workshops have been specifically developed to support maths teaching and learning in the following ways:

To support the accurate use of mathematical knowledge and concepts.
To support the use of mathematics to solve problems and make decisions.
To support the development of methods and strategies, including mental mathematics.
To provide opportunities for pupils to explore ideas, make and test predictions and think creatively.
To provide opportunities for pupils to read and interpret, organise and present information in mathematical formats.
To support the use of mathematical understanding and language to ask and answer questions, talk about and discuss ideas and explain ways of working.
