Thousands of Primary and Secondary schools keep rebooking. This is why!

Mind Missions was enjoyed by all children in our school. They loved the challenge aspect of their problem solving and they developed their team work skills throughout the day. It has improved the children’s willingness to take a risk and try different ways to solve a problem. A great day – thank you!

The HPC experience offers our year 7s a brilliant set of challenges that require them to work and bond together in their new from groupings through practical engagement, and they reinforce - in all they say and do - our growth mindset values, encouraging experimentation and 'failure' as crucial tools in ruling out options and finding solutions, and exemplifying how tough working through a challenge can be, whilst demonstrating the enormous satisfaction when you crack it. More than anything though, the sessions are fun: we don't often have students asking to stay behind at break to carry on with their lessons, but we have had them ask if they can stay in and take on another challenge!

We have used the Happy Puzzle Company for the last two years and both the staff and students have enjoyed the experience. The students have developed their team working skills as well as mathematical and logical problem solving. The instructor was brilliant at tailoring the sessions to our needs from Yr 7 to 11.

I would recommend this to other schools because it involves and excites every child, teaching them great problem solving skills. It is always well organised and the team who run it are very professional with the children. The family workshop and shop after school is also a great addition to any Puzzle Day!

The Puzzle Day experience is a wonderful example of how to teach maths in a way that captures pupils imagination and develop their natural ability to problem solve, giving them the skills of resilience. For all those teachers out there who indulged in endless rote learning of strategies and enjoy the sound of your own voice this is not for you. For those teachers who enjoy watching pupils construct their own understanding of mathematical concepts you will love this. I can't recommend it highly enough
