Number Confidence Week toolkit
Welcome to the Number Confidence Week team!
From Monday 3 to Friday 7 November we want schools across the UK to join in and build confidence with numbers among staff and children. And this year, we're focusing on how number confidence can lead to financial confidence.
In the lead-up to the campaign we will be adding a variety of resources to this page to help students see the value in numeracy. And with one in three UK adults (32%) saying they would not feel confident helping a child with their maths homework, we also want to empower everyone from teaching assistants to parents and carers. You can already get involved and help spread the word, by using the resources below.
Plus, you'll get access to our live streamed assembly event for ages 7-11, which will see our celeb guests go head-to-head in challenges with the "Wheel of Numbers".
Check back for more updates, and together let's unlock new opportunities for everyone!

However you feel about maths, you’re not alone. The National Numeracy Challenge is a free and easy-to-use website you can use to improve your confidence with numbers.
It’s ideal for brushing up, checking your level, or for catching up on learning you missed, and it’s all about the maths you need in daily life and at work – no algebra or trigonometry.
