Did you know?
Alan Turing was an English mathematician who is famous for his work cracking the Enigma Code during the Second World War.

[KGPS Maths @KgpsMaths]

Alan went to boarding school when he was very young. He was shy and spent much of his time alone. He taught himself to read and could solve mathematical problems in his head before his teachers taught him how.

Whilst at boarding school, Alan met Christopher, who shared his passion for Maths and Science. Alan fell in love and was ready to move to Cambridge with Christopher when he got terrible news: Christopher had died suddenly.

One of the tasks the children have been set is to persuade Miss Conception to change her mind about how useful Maths is. Here are some of the ideas that children came up with.

Many of the children have made a poster of how the brain works to help Miss Conception understand that the brain can grow. Even if you find something hard, you can train your brain to improve. Here are some year 6 posters.

A lot of our children have turned into detectives and have been searching for clues on the playground! Year 2 informed Miss Light that they had found a footprint and a message reading ‘Bye’ which they think is Miss Conception!
