Managing barriers to learning the foundations of mathematics.

Description

Understanding why a learner is struggling with mathematics can be complicated. In this webinar we focus on the barriers that we often see in learners in KS2 and beyond. By this point we would expect everyone to have a good grasp of the fundamentals of arithmetic, place value, counting, maths fact recall, and calculation strategies, so what are the reasons for their struggle and what are some simple strategies we can use to make learning more accessible for them.
