Maths Club

 

Maths club is dedicated to extra-curricular maths get-togethers that breathe new life into maths beyond the classroom. They come in all shapes and sizes and there is no one model that works for every school. However, they all focus on two things: having fun with maths and learning.

Maths clubs raise the profile of maths as a subject, they increase engagement and show children that maths can be playful, exciting, and full of wonder. Holding a weekly maths club lets us take off our curriculum jacket and work more informally with children while engaging them in a variety of activities for mathematical sense-making.

Joining a maths club is voluntary, but pupils throughout your school should be encouraged to enroll so they can experience learning in different ways. Working with peers from other classes and year groups helps children share ideas and cultivate their mathematical development.

Positive attitudes are associated with higher levels of maths achievement and maths clubs have the potential to really make a difference by feeding these attitudes back into regular lessons. An effective maths club can help interest in maths spread.

 

A maths club can also:

• develop children’s knowledge and understanding of maths

• strengthen the links between maths and other subjects

• provide children with opportunities to try new things

• help children apply their maths skills to other ‘real-life’ situations

• celebrate the achievement of children

• fuel a can-do approach to maths

• show children that maths is multidimensional

• develop children’s maths thinking

• promote collaborative learning between different year groups

• develop maths resilience

• boost self-confidence

• cultivate creativity

• help to raise standards

• increase parental engagement with the subject
