Welcome to Maths Week Scotland, a brand new initiative to help everyone in our nation see maths positively.  The Scottish Government’s aim is for everyone to experience the benefits, joy and beauty of maths in exciting new ways. From September, they hope to see maths being explored and celebrated throughout Scotland, and very much hope that schools will participate in some way.

Maths Week has been created as a result of the Making Maths Count group’s recommendations as a way to raise the profile of maths and its importance in all aspects of our lives.  If you’d like to read more, the report of the group is here.

Murrayfield pupils will experiencing a variety of maths challenges and games throughout this week.  We will be gathering photographs of pupils/ classes participating in these activities in order to create a presentation which will be shown on our LCD screen at the main entrance.  Please look out for this presentation in the coming weeks!
