Maths Support

Some children will have brought home a letter this evening offering additional support in maths. This is something we have done for a number of years and always found it to be successful in helping children with their confidence and ability in maths.  We ask that these slips are returned to school ASAP so we can allocate groups.

Please can we remind parents that these session begin after half term. 

If you would like any more information on this, please contact your child’s class teacher.
