SAFMEDS Packs

The research team at the Collaborative Institute for Education Research, Evidence and Impact (CIEREI), Bangor University, in collaboration with GwE has produced a comprehensive support package to help schools and parents use an evidence-based numeracy fluency strategy called SAFMEDS (Say All Fast Minute Every Day Shuffled). All the support materials are freely available for teachers and parents to use. This project is managed and supported by Kaydee Owen, post-doctoral researcher at CIEREI, Manon Davies (GwE Primary Mathematics/Numeracy SIA) and Sian Caldwell (GwE Secondary Mathematics/Numeracy SIA ).
