Resources

In this section, you'll find all sorts of information to help get you started as a Number Partner.  We have created resources to help volunteers develop students' numeracy skills in fun and memorable ways, together with tips on how to use these.  There are also practical advice and tools to help you work efficiently and effectively in schools, improve your own skills and achievements as a Number Partner.

We've also gathered a list of tried and tested maths materials from other sources that will help you create an impact and offer variety if you've been volunteering for some time.

Finally, you'll find top tips on how games can be used most beneficially.
