Turn “How did you do that?” into “I can explain it!” Maths enrichment with me, Vinny Sagoo: playful ideas, surprising patterns and plenty of chances to join in.
A number, a pattern, a trick that seems impossible. Then comes the fun of working it out. Pupils join in, try ideas and discover the maths behind the surprise.
Book for a school maths event, Maths Week or a visit that brings a fresh spark to the timetable. Try the number prediction on the home page for a small taste of how a simple idea can open a conversation.

PLANNING YOUR VISIT
A few useful answers.
Where can I book a maths workshop?
I’m based near Leicester and offer school maths workshops across the East Midlands and West Midlands, including Nottingham, Derby, Northampton, Coventry, Birmingham, Warwick and Worcester. If your school is farther afield, send your location and dates so we can discuss travel and availability.
Are the workshops for primary or secondary schools?
Both, as well as sixth forms. The key-stage range is KS2, KS3, KS4 and KS5. Tell me the year groups and your aims so we can discuss a suitable programme.
What is the difference between a half day and a full day?
A half day starts at £595 and includes 1 or 2 sessions. A full day starts at £995 and includes 3 or 4 sessions. Workshop sessions last 45 or 60 minutes, with a maximum of 50 attendees. The agreed timetable and quote will set out your programme.
What happens in a maths and magic workshop?
We explore numbers, patterns and problem-solving through interactive magic. Pupils join in, experience the surprise and discover the maths behind it. Tell me your year groups and what you’d like them to take away so we can discuss a suitable programme.
Can we book an author visit or teacher CPD instead?
Yes. The 60-minute meet-the-author Q&A about Mind the Maths Magic starts at £395. Teacher CPD explores practical maths and magic ideas for the classroom and is quoted separately. Explore the other session options.
