The National Day Nurseries Association (NDNA) is looking for 120 nurseries to join its Maths Champions scheme, which embeds the numbers skill in play and activities.
As part of the project, a graduate member of nursery staff will receive free training and resources worth around £2,000, to build theirs and the children’s maths confidence.
The programme will then look at the impact that the champions may have had on pupils’ later performance at school.
In addition to the champions training, which usually costs £300, financial support will be on hand to help nurseries get the most out of the project.
The project is funded by the Education Endowment Foundation, a charity aiming to raise the attainment of children facing disadvantage.
