Numeracy

We have an enviable reputation as national specialists in the provision of numeracy resources and we are proud of our association with Every Child Counts, the Maths Recovery Council UK and the Mata Sa Rang programme in Ireland.

As well as designing and manufacturing a wide range of printed resources, we are also pleased to bring you a carefully selected range of other products which have been chosen because they work particularly well alongside our own printed range.

The beadbars and beadstrings for example, work well in tandem with our number line range.

We have also managed to source several resources which are used very effectively in countries that have a reputation for excellence in mathematics teaching but are not available widely in the UK. We hope you enjoy browsing.
