Puffin Maths

Deaf children lag mathematically behind hearing children by about 3 years, despite normal nonverbal IQs. The disparity in mathematical performance between deaf and hearing students is well documented. Puffin Maths aims to support pupils at risk of developmental dyscalculia and pupils performing significantly below their peers in maths. The program uses a graduated approach as recommended by the SEND Code of Practice using four important stages: - Assess - Plan - Intervene - Review Puffin Maths has two seamlessly linked components; online standardised dyscalculia assessment and intervention. The standardised assessment has been developed against a validated NumberSenseMMR® framework and based on research from neuroscience, dyscalculia, early childhood development, and education. The standardised dyscalculia assessment: 1. Identifies pupils at-risk of dyscalculia and maths developmental delays 2. Delivers an Individual Support Plan and Scheme of Work 3. Provides standardised scores and percentile rank. 4. It differentiates developmental dyscalculia from maths developmental delays. With the support of this specialist resource, no child with dyscalculia should be overlooked again. https://s.mtrbio.com/puffin-maths
