Numicon is inclusive - meeting the needs of all children

Numicon welcomes the release of the new Draft Maths curriculum recently released by the Ministry of Education along with the expectation of teaching structured maths in 2025.  For the last 15 years we have seen school after school being incredibly successful lifting the achievement level of their students across the full spectrum of gifted through to those who learn differently.  

When you apply the principles of structured maths using a Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract approach with manipulatives, you raise the achievement of every child.  The Numicon programme is consistent with the new curriculum and the intentions of the Ministry to require schools to implement structured maths in 2025.  The foundations for maths is laid out so well in the first three books of the series. These foundations are not hurried but strong and well-paced.

Numicon is such an amazing tool making it easy to implement structured maths in your school.  Lesson plans are all done for you, the sequence of teaching is laid out, and you are provided with everything you need to deliver explicit teaching.  

You will enjoy teaching maths again and even more importantly, your students will love maths.

Numicon is based on years of thorough research from international experts in learning and maths education - Vygotsky, Gattegno, Piaget, Skemp, Sfard, Bruner, Davydov, Wing, Mason and others.  It is continually being updated to meet the needs of all learners. 


Using Numicon results in the enjoyment of maths and exciting results in every school.  Once implemented well...

Netherby School

Netherby School has been involved in a few maths programme initiatives over the years.  We have been pleased with different aspects of each programme we had looked at, but never the entire package until we started on our Numicon journey.  

We are pleased to implement Numicon that engages children with materials that just make such good common sense to both teachers and children.  
The programme is logical, well resourced, clear and allows for teaching breadth in a school wide sequential way.  

We are seeing rapid improvement in teacher pedagogy and children's learning outcomes.  

At this stage we are more than happy and recommend the programme to any prospective school searching for the right maths programme.
