What others say:

“On a day-to-day basis, Numicon Online software has become an integral part of our live modelling and explicit teaching using manipulatives. When it comes to planning, the online handbooks have been incredibly useful in instilling oracy to unpick and contextualise concepts with the starter images, whilst also providing teachers with rich activities to explore concepts practically and visually.”
Lydia and Charlotte, Maths Leads at Overdale Junior School, Leicester

“The online handbooks allow teachers to easily display and share the online images and models to their class to support their understanding of the maths being taught. These visuals provide starting prompts and lots of opportunities for mathematical discussion. Since using Numicon online staff have also found that it has supported them in streamlining their weekly planning.”
Laura, Maths Lead Teacher and SENCO at Yarborough Academy

“I would recommend a Numicon online subscription for the depth and range of resources available. The IWB software is definitely the best I have used in my teaching career and supports the use of the practical manipulatives greatly in my teaching. At Prospect Vale, we aim for all children in our school to use Numicon resources throughout their whole time with us to develop real depth of understanding and having the online materials enhances our ability to achieve that goal.”
Will, Maths lead and Year 6 teacher at Prospect Vale Primary School
