Make, Create + Calculate!
This fun and creative course took people on the first step towards beginning their level 1 or level 2 maths. In our friendly weekly sessions, people had the chance to:
- Have fun being creative
- Build your confidence with numbers
- Learn about 3D printers, laser cutters + more
- Be supported with your future maths learning options
This course was open to anyone aged 19+ and who didn’t currently have a level 1 or level 2 in maths. We ran 2 courses – one at KWMC The Factory open to anyone in South Bristol, and one at Knowle West Nursery School which was open to parents and has a free creche available.
During and after the course there was support available from our team to help people onto the next step in their learning journey.
This course was part of the Multiply programme which offers easy access to free numeracy courses and initiatives where you can gain a qualification, and build your confidence with numbers. These free sessions were part of the Unlock Your Potential, Skills For Life Multiply Programme run by the UK Government through West of England Combined Authority. There were more courses and offers for beginners and those who want to build on the foundations of their maths knowledge – to more advanced courses such as GCSE Maths, Level 2 Functional Skills Qualification, or equivalent. People were able to learn at a pace that suited them.
