Maths Workshops

If your Secondary School is looking to hold a maths enrichment day The Problem Solving Company’s KS3 and KS4 maths activity days are a great way to involve either small numbers of students or whole year groups.

Our range of Secondary Maths Days have been carefully designed to help students see Maths from a different perspective. The workshops and activity days are all based around a hands on experience where the students are encouraged to understand the benefits of reasoning during their Problem Solving experience.

Types of Secondary School Maths Workshops available.

School Escape Rooms

Prices From
£595.00

Numeracy

Suitable for: KS3,  KS4

Structure / Numbers:  When visiting Secondary Schools we usually run our Classroom Escapes in parallel with their school day. This is normally 5 or 6 sessions with approx. 30 students in each session.

We run a large range of topics for our Classroom Escapes with Maths being a very popular choice. Working in small groups the students firstly have to work out how to get into one of our bespoke Escape Boxes by solving a maths puzzle. Once entry to the box has been achieved a range of different maths based challenges are revealed that use a range of resources. If the students are successful at cracking the codes a key will be revealed so they can stop the timer to register their time

Our Classroom Escapes have been received with great enthusiasm from students and teachers alike. It has proved a great way to get even the most reluctant learner enthused about Maths Challenges.

Due to the popularity of the Escape sessions we have a few different versions available. As we often visit schools the same schools each year this avoids any repetition of the previous years activities.
