Maths Week

Each year we celebrate Maths Week during the month of October. Maths Week is an important way to help learners, of all ages, to enjoy Maths and to highlight the creativity of this subject. During this week, we focus on all things Maths. Pupils enjoy participating in a range of Maths games, maths trails, maths quizzes and a paired maths activity. See our timetable below for Maths Week!
