Karen was invited by the Best Practice Network: Apprenticeships Podcast at the start of the summer and enjoyed an excellent discussion with the hosts.
Episode Description
In this thought‑provoking new episode of the Best Practice Network Apprenticeship Podcast, hosts Emma Minchella and Tatia Singleton sit down with Karen McGuigan, founder of Maths For Life, to explore how maths education can be reimagined to better support learners of all ages and abilities.
Together, they unpack the mission behind Maths For Life — a movement dedicated to making maths meaningful, accessible, and empowering for every learner. Karen shares her powerful vision for a curriculum that prioritises real‑life numeracy, confidence‑building, and practical problem‑solving, ensuring maths becomes a tool for independence rather than a barrier to progress.
