Regardless of how you did with maths at school - we can all be mathematicians and we want the next generation to have a positive mindset toward maths.
Maths is about beautiful, simple or complicated patterns, it is about puzzles, it is about finding more than one answer to a problem and more than one way to solve it. Maths is incredibly creative!
