Numeracy gives access to important ideas, skills and knowledge. Numeracy connects the students' learning in school with their personal and work lives. As their education progresses, the students learn that numeracy skills are used in practically every career they may choose.

Numeracy takes a systematic and comprehensive perspective to promoting multi-sensory approaches, motivations and memory consolidations. It is important to develop logical thinking and reasoning strategies for the students to be able to carry on everyday activities. Lifelong skills are based on students' abilities to solve problems and to make sense of numbers, time, shapes and patterns. Numeracy helps them to develop creativity, abstract and special thinking and even effective communication

Students are challenged to use their numeracy skills for everyday activities. They experience that numeracy is more than numbers. They have the opportunities to understand and use mathematical ideas and knowledge from telling the time, meal preparations, setting the table, to planning a trip, reading a map and using timetables. As students move through life stages and school milestones, the numeracy demands become more complex, with a large range of connections: money, sports, cooking, home decorating/remodelling and shopping.

Numeracy skills make life easier and in orderly to prevent chaos and confusion. Students are influenced in certain things, qualities and abilities by promoting problem solving, creativity, critical thinking, power of reasoning and effective communication. For finding some clues or interpretations, students have to use some methodology to be able to relay on transferable skills from lessons to daily life.

Authentic Inclusive Approach
Responding to the needs of every individual pupil and celebrating their diversity and difference In Numeracy, the inclusive approach is an effective way to give all students a fair chance to experience, learn and develop the skills they need to thrive. The students' neurodiversity is the launching ramp for their choices, communications, partnership opportunities and attitudes towards accessing and learning lifelong skills. Building on their self-confidence, the students have the time, space and tools to participate and engage at their own level.
