Parents have been putting their thinking caps on in a maths teach-in. It was back to the drawing board for parents - like Barry Ricahardson (pictured) of youngsters at Skelton Junior School and neighbouring De Brus. They rolled up their sleeves and joined pupils in a day-long exercise solving open-ended problems. 6th July 1988

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 1980s at Skelton Junior School and neighboring De Brus, where parents have gathered for a remarkable maths teach-in. The image captures the essence of parental involvement in education as they put on their thinking caps and roll up their sleeves to join their young ones in solving open-ended mathematical problems. Barry Richardson, a devoted parent, takes center stage in the photograph. With an air of determination and enthusiasm, he immerses himself in the day-long exercise alongside his child. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates the dedication and commitment shown by parents during this era. The event itself was undoubtedly a return to the drawing board for these eager adults who were willing to expand their own knowledge base while supporting their children's learning journey. It is heartwarming to witness such active participation from parents who recognized the importance of mathematics education. This powerful image serves as a reminder that education extends beyond classroom walls; it thrives when families come together with educators to create an environment conducive to growth and development. The collaboration between parents and schools showcased here exemplifies how collective efforts can shape young minds for future success. As we reflect upon this moment frozen in time, let us celebrate not only Barry Richardson but also all those unsung heroes who have dedicated themselves to nurturing young minds through educational partnerships like these.
