The Cumbrian Whitehaven News reported yesterday on some exciting improvements to local schools, courtesy of funding from the South Whitehaven Neighbourhood Management Partnership. The money was used to buy tools to improve standards in literacy and numeracy.
Hensingham Primary School, in particular, used the money to subscribe to Maths-Whizz Tutoring for Schools. Pupils now…
…carry out graded maths activities after assessment in school and continue them at home in a fun manner.
As Whitehaven News notes:
The equipment has proved to be very popular and in the short time they have been in school there has been an increased enthusiasm for reading and maths which speaks for itself.
We’re sure the South Whitehaven Partnership’s money has been well-spent!
