In the age of AI, maths still matters but so do social skills. The greatest value sits with people who can not only β€œdo” the maths, but explain it, justify and collaborate.

This is what pupils learn in Axiom Maths circles.

Maths gives you the edge because of what you know AND how you use it.

Sweets come in packets of 12, 15 or 20. How many packets did you buy if you got exactly 86 sweets?🍬

Some pupils will guess. A few will spot structure. We explore how problem-solving skills emerge & why nurturing adventurous, articulate and accepting behaviours in the classroom matters.

Why β€˜fun’ isn’t just for the last week of term β€” Axiom Maths December can be a tough month in the teaching world. The days are cold and dark, end of term assessments loom and both pupils and teachers are ready for a well-earned break after the longest…

❄️ December in schools can be tough: dark days, tired minds and the pressure to β€œlighten” maths with games.

But why do we save the fun for the final week? And what does that say about maths the rest of the year?

Our blog explores how joy + rigour can (and should!) coexist.

Using only 8's, can you create a sum of 1000?
YouTube video by Jonathan Hall Using only 8's, can you create a sum of 1000?

A couple of weeks ago I attended a great session on problem solving with Ian Davies @axiommaths.bsky.social

I thought this was cool so I made a quick video.
