Just thought I'd share as I've seen several threads with low confidence dd's in maths,my dd being one of them.
Anyway I bit the bullet and signed her up for said summer camp last night and she's been on it over an hour today and has learnt masses already.First computer maths thing we've tried and I was a bit sceptical tbh.
There is a camp to consolidate each year group just passed,with teaching thumbnails(Carol Vorderman v good at teaching surprisingly),they then have games they can play and then a skills section where they collect stars towards badges.All really well done and as an ex teacher myself largely so far as I'd put it across. Admittedly we've only been on it today but she's romping through which is amazing.
She's fired up and walking round with a very big head which is lovely to see(first time ever).
Only thing is her brothers want to join,they don't really need to and at £15 it would be too pricey to pay for all.

Not keen on Carol Vorderman but blimey that Maths Factor Summer School is good for kids with low mathematical confidence.
