Maths Makes Sense: Toolkit

Suddenly, children who had not previously engaged with maths were fully involved. They were laughing and enjoying their learning and could comprehend by 'concretizing' the abstract concepts they previously did not understand. (Ben Davis, Deputy Headteacher, St Martins Primary school, Wolverhampton)

Maths Makes Sense has made an explicit difference to the development of our children. Richard Dunne is fondly known as The King of Cups at Cuckoo Hall and although Maths Makes Sense has been in the school for under a year its impact has been pervasive and our early results clearly show this. The support and training package we received was excellent and the implementation of the program was absolutely painless. Richard's personal contribution to the training was crucial to engendering staff enthusiasm for an innovative product. (Sarah Oliver, Deputy Headteacher, Cuckoo Hall Primary School, Enfield, London)
