“Witnessing their curiosity and engagement with the logic puzzles is truly heartening, and it reinforces the importance of fostering a love for mathematics at an early age. I’m particularly pleased when pupils realise that they are still learning about the maths and logic even when they don’t find a solution to a problem and that ‘keeping going’ is in itself a measure of success.  

“I hope that they take forward 2 the confidence to embrace getting things wrong as an important part of their learning journey alongside a love of logic puzzles and mathematics.” 

Mr Loweth presented the students with puzzles designed to engage logic and reasoning. 

“Duncan set up the Maths Roadshow in an effort to provide specialised maths expertise within the primary school and to encourage wider collaboration and partnership across the island with the goal of securing excellent maths provision for all,” said Head of Primary Learning and Development, Kim Hutchison. 

“This kind of collaborative working is hugely beneficial to our students, and making a sometimes-daunting subject such as maths into something engaging and stimulating is key to its teaching. I’d like to thank Duncan for the work he has put into the roadshow and we look forward to showing it to more of our schools.”
