Would you be interested in working with NRICH on an exciting new project with the aim of improving problem-solving skills for learners in mathematics?

This project offers a strong response to calls for improved problem-solving in the latest Ofsted maths report. It will address the need for better quality, more frequent problem-solving opportunities as students progress through their schooling, and also encourage schools to develop a positive environment for nurturing problem-solving both within and beyond their setting through NRICH’s new 'Charter'.
