Maths KS3 at winmarleigh hall, lancashire for secondary schools
Adventure + Data = Answers!
Inspire your KS3 pupils with this lively perspective on mathematics. At PGL, learning maths is all about collecting data, applying theories and making the subject relevant and real. Whilst on the activity bases, students collect data from some of their sessions and employ mathematics to analyse and interpret it.
All students benefit from this course regardless of ability. The more able begin to see further potential in maths and its many practical applications, while for the less able, it’s their chance to see the subject taken off the page and brought right into their own world.
Activities
The PGL Adventure Bonus
