An introduction to the Problem-Solving Schools initiative

Problem-Solving Schools is an exciting, free initiative to help schools raise the profile of mathematical problem-solving, and support, inspire and develop better problem-solvers.

Join Charlie and Liz to learn about the benefits of joining the NRICH Problem-Solving Schools initiative, and the resources available for teachers wanting to embed problem solving in their curriculum.

This webinar is suitable for schools considering joining the initiative, as well as schools and teachers who have recently joined.

During the event

This event will be hosted on Zoom and a link will be shared with all those who register.

During the events, we will share some of our thinking and invite you to have a go at some maths activities. It would therefore be useful for you to have pencil and paper available. There will be opportunities to share your thoughts with the NRICH team using the Zoom chat facility.

How to get involved

This event is free, but pre-booking is essential. To book your place please register online. Please note: if several teachers from the same school would like to take part, you will each need to register individually.

Thank you to Trinity College, University of Cambridge, for their generous support for this event.
