When you hear the word ‘mathematician’, you might picture someone scribbling equations on a chalkboard, buried in textbooks. Names like Pythagoras, Euclid, and Newton often come to mind. But maths isn’t just about ancient theories and historic figures – it’s a vibrant, evolving field that shapes the world around us in ways we don’t always realise.
As the brilliant mathematician Shakuntala Devi once said, “Without mathematics, there’s nothing you can do.”
So, for school leaders and Maths teachers, the question is: how do we explore new ways to motivate and inspire the next generation of problem solvers? How do we continue to make maths relevant and – dare we say – fun?
That’s where Education Perfect (EP) comes in. It’s our mission to make maths engaging and relatable for every student, equipping them with the skills needed to navigate real-world challenges.
Finding Maths in Daily Experiences
Maths is more than just another subject taught in school; it’s a powerful life skill that we use every day – often without realising. The trick is showing students that maths is all around us, often in the most unexpected places. The apps you enjoy, the physics in your favourite video games, the GPS you use, the sports you play, the shows you binge-watch – maths is behind it all.
Data analysts, engineers, financial experts, athletes and medical researchers are all using algorithms, geometry and calculus to shape the world we live in.
Mathematicians in Disguise
These professionals may not wear capes, but their maths skills make them everyday heroes. Data analysts, for example, use algorithms to predict behaviour and optimise strategies. Engineers use advanced calculations to design buildings and develop space technology. Medical researchers use statistics to develop new treatments. Animators use geometry to bring characters to life and create incredible special effects. Everyday, everywhere, people are using maths to problem-solve in practical, impactful ways.
But how do we prepare our students to join these ranks? By showing them that maths is far more than worksheets and tests. It’s the key to preparing them for the world around them.
Preparing Future Problem Solvers
Whether your students dream of designing video games, creating blockbuster movies, becoming sports analysts, or just want to ace their next Maths test, EP Maths is here to support you and show your students that numbers drive the future.
