Welcome to Number Partners!

Number Partners is a volunteering programme designed to support young people across the country with their number and financial literacy skills. Volunteers visit primary or secondary schools to play number games with students, making maths fun and boosting students' confidence.

Volunteer do not need to be mathematical geniuses or even have had experience of working in schools, all they need is an interest in young people and numbers, and the commitment to spend up to one hour a week or fortnight at a school.

We provide everything else needed for volunteers to get involved including:

  • Practical advice for companies and schools interested in starting a scheme
  • Online training for volunteers
  • Resources for volunteers
  • Information for broker organisations who specialise in setting up education/business partnerships

Registering is easy to do, just follow the links to register now!

“It's rewarding to see how giving up a small amount of your time can make a big difference. I was amazed by how excited the children were!”
