Meet & Make Friends

You might think that meeting up to do maths can’t offer much of a fulfilling social opportunity. At Maths Explorers, we know it absolutely can – when we invest in helping the social atmosphere thrive, like it can do at a club!

We’ve run our clubs with children and adults in this social way for years now, making an activity-based maths meet-up the anchor upon which social learning around the practice of maths skills & understanding can grow.

Play as a Way of Thinking

Poetic licence allows the artist in us to break the rules of language so as to say or discover something new.

The mathematician in us can play with mathematical techniques and ideas in just this way too.

Every one of us has a mathematician inside of us, just as we have an artist, a writer, a scientist…. every one of us can become an even better mathematician.

Join our clubs for a chance to relax, play around and tinker with maths ideas, building curiosity and subject knowledge along the way.

Discovery & Happy Maths Memories

Experiencing wonder and beauty in maths can open doors to building happy maths memories and meaningful maths experiences – deepening our sense of connection and belonging to maths ideas

Children at our clubs can immerse themselves in a challenging yet relaxed maths enrichment atmosphere where the process of problem-solving itself – enquiring, noticing, thinking and sharing mathematically, are more valuable than just the pursuit of ‘correct’ answers.

Hope to see you soon at one of our clubs!

Practice makes Permanent

Practice is really important. Many times in life, we’ll want to wear our mathematician’s hat really well. To do this, practising how to play with maths patterns, learning how to spot them and manoeuvre them better and better is key – and it’s a lifelong skill we can invest in.

In our clubs, we learn how to play as well as practise maths together. We hope that what may begin as two distinct approaches to maths in our students’ minds, will eventually converge as one and the same thing, drawing out deeper enjoyment and success with their future maths journeys.

What our parents say:

"We’re having some great conversations about how before Maths Explorers we thought maths was just about numbers. Now we’ve realised maths is everywhere... Wish I knew that when I was at school! It’s been a game changer for me that’s for sure!"

Mum

"I think your lesson ideas and enthusiasm are excellent. I also love the relaxed pace and way you ensure the children know their answers are always valid (even when they might be a little off track)"

Mum

Maths Explorers Clubs – how maths curious is your young person?

We have 2 main groups of young people whom our clubs can benefit, loosely based on their existing curiosity level around maths. All clubs support young people to practise thinking like a real mathematician whilst being immersed in uplifting and joyful mathematical experiences along the way. Most clubs are mixed curiosity clubs, with some exceptionally maths curious young people (usually younger than the ‘age level’ suggested for the club) in the same club as those who are more gently maths curious.

Exceptionally Maths Curious

These are young people who are already working ‘ahead’ of their traditional age suggested curriculum level and possess exceptionally high levels of mathematical curiosity with an almost insatiable hunger to want to know more and more about maths concepts. Please contact us so we can have a chat about which club might be best suited to your child. The most suitable club will depend on how much ahead of traditional curriculum your child is already working at and to what degree they are comfortable with independently directing their maths investigations.

Gently Maths Curious

Explorers in this group are those who are already reasonably confident with their age suggested level of curriculum maths but would like to know more outside and beyond their curriculum, or to practise their curriculum maths in new ways. The clubs offer content which will inspire and support young people who although may not be exceptionally curious about maths already, do value and enjoy a range of maths ideas and are curious to learn and practise more of it. Explorers are supported to maintain and deepen their mathematical confidence, knowledge & maths thinking skills.

Age Groups

Children usually join clubs in roughly similar age bands, for example Ages 7yrs-9yrs or 10yrs-12yrs. However, the decision on which club is most suitable may be more to do with children’s prior interest and experience with maths, rather than strictly by age, year groups or ability. If you would prefer your child to join a year group younger or older than their age, please just get in touch with us for a chat.

Cost

All new children are welcome to a paid trial (£15) of our club and can trial in any week of term depending on availability. If it works out and they would like to sign on, the cost for our clubs is £15/child/week with discounts available for siblings. Please see the timetable for full range of clubs & costs.

Payment is requested for the half or full term, with your fee adjusted for the week of term you start in. If at any stage you need to withdraw from the clubs, you just need to let us know and we refund for any weeks left on your account.

Spring Term 2026, Club Dates & Times, 10 week term

Home-ed & Afterschool Maths Explorers clubs begin week commencing 5th of January and run for 10 weeks with a half-term break in February. All times given are UK local times. If your preferred club is currently full, with a waiting list open, please still pop your details down in our form and we will be in touch as soon as a place opens up. Thank you!

Gently Maths Curious

If your young person is already quite confident with numbers to 100 and with addition/ subtraction, this club will most likely not be suitable, but our Tuesday 4.30pm club might well be).

Juniors: Ages 6/7yrs-8/9yrs, Tuesdays 4.30pm-5.20pm, £15/child/week (to benefit from this club, Explorers will need to be quite comfortable at recognising numbers up to 1000 written as numerals and will already be exploring multiplication and division concepts)
