Over half a million children and young people in primary and secondary schools across the UK and beyond have taken part in one of our Creative Maths workshops to date! 

All of our Primary maths workshops have been carefully designed to both put into context and actively promote the three keystones of the National Curriculum: fluency, reasoning and problem solving. Tapping into pupils' own creativity, our unashamedly fun workshops engage, motivate and, crucially, challenge the children and young people we work with.

Rooted in drama and storytelling, our maths activity days offer opportunities to practise skills with numbers, shapes and concepts in exciting, imaginative and interactive ways. All are differentiated for age - while some also offer the possibility of differentiating for ability within a single class. And all, of course, offer you and your colleagues the chance to experience some exciting new methodologies that can immediately and easily be adapted to other contexts.

Our downloadable Maths teaching resource packages have recently been shortlisted for both a Teach Primary and Bett Award in the STEM category!

"The children had a wonderful time and every year group was inspired, challenged and excited by the activity and Jackson’s approach. We found the idea of the workshops so clever and there was such a variety of maths involved. In 14 years of teaching, it’s the best workshop I’ve seen!" St Mary's Hare Park

"We had a fantastic day ...The depth of knowledge that Chris had, it was phenomenal! It was so lovely having a workshop which could range from Reception to Year 6 and enthuse all year groups equally. I would definitely book another event with you. It was easy to organise and the feedback from staff and children was great!" Kimbolton Prep School
