Tánaiste and Minister for Education and Skills, Mary Coughlan TD, today welcomed the report of the Project Maths Implementation Support Group -an industry/education partnership set up to examine how best stakeholders from business, second level and higher education can work together to achieve the objectives of Project Maths.
Project Maths is a programme of reform in second level schools designed to teach mathematics in a way that promotes enhanced skills and real understanding, where students can appreciate the relevance of what they are learning and its application to everyday life, and how mathematics can be used to solve problems.
Project Maths is already being implemented in 24 project schools and will begin in all second level schools in September.
