"Maximizes the power and potential of the ICT, the successful teacher and the pupil."

Trinity Maths is an intuitive, versatile and powerful ICT resource which can be integrated into all phases of the structured Mathematics lesson at any level of attainment. It aims to demonstrate exemplar practice, through the highest quality of presentation to promote academic excellence. This second generation resource maximizes the power and potential of not only the emerging ICT technology in today's classroom, but also the successful teacher and the student of Mathematics.

The menu system of each one of the 65 Topic Files is objective driven and based upon the level descriptions and the attainment targets of the Mathematics National Curriculum and the key objectives taken from the yearly teaching programmes of the National Numeracy Strategy and the Framework for Teaching Mathematics. It establishes high expectations and motivates pupils, sets challenging targets, strengthens transition from Key Stage 2 to 3 to 4 and ensures progression in teaching and learning.

"...multiple clue buttons provide differentiation to include lower ability pupils."

Complicated, time consuming theories are communicated simply and effectively without having to spend hours preparing resources before the lesson. It maximises and allows greater control of lesson pace to focus on essential teaching points and generates a purposeful atmosphere in the classroom. Trinity Maths offers a comprehensive, rigorous and eclectic mix of classic traditional, new progressive and original mathematical material. Problem solving in engaging real-life contexts and calculator-assisted questions are also included.

A key benefit of the resource is that teachers and pupils are able to come back to the program over and over again. Exercises are generated using random numbers, massive data sets or user-defined values meaning that pupils are constantly challenged. All activities possess mathematical integrity and are interactive, dynamic and animated. Controls are strategically placed and all content is vividly presented on a principally white background allowing plenty of space for teacher annotation or pupils to show their working.

"...extension and enrichment activities address the needs of gifted and talented pupils."

The multiple clue buttons provide differentiation to include lower ability pupils, an exemplar sequence of solution, animated annotation of problems and diagrams, increased opportunities for explicit exposition of teaching points and prompts for pupils to respond to direct questioning. Answers are revealed to give instant feedback to pupils and allow the teacher to make formative assessment for learning. The inclusion of extension and enrichment activities means the resource offers a hybrid teaching style equally applicable to addressing the needs of gifted and talented pupils.

No other ICT package supports delivery of the National Curriculum, Numeracy Strategy and Framework key objectives in such a comprehensive and user-friendly way. Trinity Maths has been created, trialled and improved within the Mathematics Department of Trinity C of E High School, a DfES designated Leading Edge School. In terms of its concept, content, presentation and interface, Trinity Maths raises the bar so high...there is no bar.
