Numeracy Audit

Dear Colleague,

The Mathematics department is currently trying to raise the profile of Numeracy across the curriculum by putting together a pack of resources/ideas that can be distributed to departments to aid teachers, in delivering numeracy through their lessons.

Please don’t be alarmed, this doesn’t mean you are going to be asked to teach mathematics. This will be something that you already use in your every day teaching.

In order to develop this pack could you please fill in the audit below and return it to me by ______.

Many Thanks,

______
