Maths Skills

Playful and practical ways to strengthen number confidence.

Maths that feels approachable

Maths Skills is the first hour described in the reference’s Tuesday programme. It creates opportunities to work with numbers, patterns and practical problem solving without the pressure of a formal school day.

  • Develop comfort with number talk.
  • Approach questions with patience and curiosity.
  • Practise explaining how an answer was reached.

Learning with encouragement

Children can practise important skills at a comfortable pace while enjoying new ways to express their ideas and ask questions.

Part of a bigger morning

The original Tuesday programme weaves together Maths, English and Creative Communication, helping children develop both academic and social confidence.
