Numeracy

Numeracy is integrated in all of our lessons at Aureus and we are working hard to raise the profile of the importance of all students being numerate. For example, we celebrate National Numeracy Day by ensuring all lessons explicitly show where numeracy exists in their subject.

On a Friday afternoon students take part in a numeracy related task; either a STEAM focussed assembly or a Numeracy Ninja challenge. Additionally, students have the option to participate in Personal Development Time clubs such as Maths Masters or Chess and they can complete MyMaths challenges at home.

At the end of each term students are rewarded for their progress in MyMaths and Numeracy Ninja challenges.
