This strategy aims to create a more cohesive and effective approach to education in Literacy, Numeracy and Digital Literacy. It seeks to streamline and strengthen existing initiatives, ensuring that support and resources are available to schools. It emphasises a renewed focus on Numeracy and in particular Numeracy development and promoting positive dispositions from early childhood to post primary level.

Providing a rationale for integrating Numeracy across the curriculum

jct2 — 2025-09-05 15:12:37 UTC

In this clip Dr. Kathy O'Sullivan from the University of Galway introduces a rationale for integrating Numeracy across the curriculum. She explores the N-Framework, which can be used as a tool to guide teachers as they explore numeracy opportunities within their own subject.

Applying the 5 Dimensions of Numeracy Knowledge Across the Curriculum

jct2 — 2025-09-05 15:24:22 UTC

The five elements of numeracy knowledge outlined in the 21st Century Model for Numeracy forms the bridge between a teacher's subject specific knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge within the N Framework. Here we explore how the five elements of numeracy knowledge can be applied across a range of subjects and used by teachers as a tool to exploit numeracy opportunities within their subject.

The objectives of the Literacy, Numeracy and Digital Literacy Strategy 2024-2033 are set out across five key pillars. As with its predecessor in 2011, this strategy will be the focal point within the education system for improving literacy, numeracy, and digital literacy outcomes to 2033. Pillar 5 focuses on supporting diverse learners to achieve their potential.

Numeracy in Health

jct2 — 2025-11-19 15:26:12 UTC

This video emphasises that numeracy is not just the domain of the mathematics department, but something that appears in everyday contexts such as health, nutrition, physical activity and media claims, so teachers of all subjects can deliberately invite students to explore and question numerical and statistical information in their discipline (e.g., science, geography, home economics).
