Numeracy across the curriculum

In spring 2002 all schools are expected to devote a whole-school training day to numeracy across the curriculum. The Numeracy across the curriculum pack is designed to help you plan and run this training matched to your school's particular needs. The materials support schools that have already done considerable work on numeracy across the curriculum as well as those that are just starting.

The Notes for school-based training folder, DCSF ref 0697/2001, contains briefings for nine possible units of training. Each unit starts with a list of objectives, suggestions for use, resources required and an overview of the session. Associated handouts and OHTs are available in hard copy in the folder.

The Support materials wallet, DCSF ref 0699/2001, contains a video, a poster needed for one of the units, 10 copies of the Numeracy across the curriculum objectives, and a CD-ROM containing electronic versions of the handouts and OHTs.

A separate page contains web-based sources of data - to accompany unit 7.
