Dyscalculia & MLD Tour - Part 2

with Fil Came, Learning Works

Our campaign began 8 years ago with the release of our resource Working with Dyscalculia, this was due to the rising numbers of pupils with maths learning difficulties, and a steady increase of interest into Dyscalculia and MLD.

This event has grown from feedback of previous events and will offer a fuller range of practical teaching ideas and suggestions for working with pupils experiencing barriers to learning in Maths. It promises to be interactive and hands-on and will provide another bank of extensive resources for you to use and share with colleagues at school.

Recent Tour Feedback: "It was really good to have more opportunity to actually be 'hands-on' in our learning and to work with the resources and learn." "A thorough and knowledgeable presentation with excellent material. I came away very happy." "Fil shows such passion and enthusiasm for your subject. I felt today's presentation was wonderful. It was so relevant to our classroom and how and what we can do to help. Such practical and easy suggestions. Thank you." "Great course. It was very well organised and the small touches we're much appreciated. It is always refreshing to go on a course that is not orientated just around meeting national criteria." "I enjoyed the relaxed style of presentation combined with the level of experience and expertise Fil has to draw on."
