Schools
What do zombie crime scenes, fancy dress parades and baking have in common? They are just some of the ways schools have got involved with Maths Week Scotland. The options are limited only by your imagination!
Maths Week Scotland will return 25 September - 1 October 2023 with the theme Maths in Motion.
Last year we had over 300 schools from every Local Authority take part in Maths Week Scotland and this year we would love to see even more schools get involved. Put your school on the map and become an official Maths Week Scotland school for 2023!
Read our announcement of this year's theme for some initial ideas on how to interpret Maths in Motion, and check out our Ideas for Your Classroom. Or get further Ideas and Inspiration from the resources and case studies in the Schools section of our website.
This year will also see the return of our Maths Week Scotland competitions: Daily Challenge, Maths wi Nae Borders, Maths Inside, Sumdog and Scotland Rocks.
Finally, if funding is what you need to take part this year then look no further than the Maths Week Scotland Small Grants Fund, which reopens in Spring.
