Headline Sponsor - AQA

Since 1903, we’ve been rewarding achievement by designing and delivering fair and inclusive assessment. We do this because we believe that quality assessment is an essential ingredient for a good education. We’re the most chosen exam board in England and we set and mark the papers for around half of all GCSEs and A-levels. Our qualifications are taught in 30 countries around the world. 

But we’re more than an exam board. As an independent education charity we reinvest all of our income. From funding cutting-edge research, to supporting new insights that help raise the bar in assessment practice internationally, we’re always focused on fair and inclusive assessment and the positive impact it has on teaching, learning and society. 
In 120 years, our mission hasn’t changed, but the way we improve assessment keeps on evolving.

Rethink Maths

Rethink Maths is a new education organisation founded in 2025 by a team of experienced mathematics leaders committed to improving outcomes for every learner. The organisation works with schools, trusts and education systems in the UK and internationally to design high-quality curriculum resources, professional development and innovative programmes that strengthen mathematics teaching.

Rethink Maths is built around five core missions: Foundations, Confidence, Inclusion, Real-world and Teaching. The team focuses on helping all pupils develop secure understanding, positive attitudes and long-term success in mathematics. Our initial work places particular emphasis on early years and primary education, ensuring strong foundations that support future learning.

Rethink Maths combines research-informed approaches with practical classroom application, aiming to reduce teacher workload while improving impact. The team is currently working in partnership with organisations including the Victorian Department of Education in Australia and The Richmond Project, delivering large-scale curriculum and early mathematics initiatives.

We are here to make a lasting difference in the way maths is taught, learned and loved by children, by adults, by everyone.
