Dartboard Maths: educational resource to be introduced in schools
Bradford City FC Community Foundation has teamed up with professional darts player Devon Petersen to introduce a new - and darts-based - maths resource into Bradford schools.
Dartboard Maths, which was founded and created by Petersen, uses a physical dartboard and related activities to teach core maths skills.
It is designed to align with STEM education goals while keeping students entertained.
Oliver Read, head of the Premier League Primary Stars programme at Bradford City FC Community Foundation, said: "We are delighted to be working with Devon and Dartboard Maths, and to have the opportunity to deliver this interactive, fun, and above all educational resource in the schools we work with."
The resource, which features mascot Darty the Dartbot, will be delivered in Bradford schools this summer as part of Bradford City FC Community Foundation's Premier League Primary Stars programme, which is funded by the Premier League Charitable Fund.
Dartboard Maths has already been adopted in schools in Petersen's native South Africa.
Local schools that are interested in finding out more about the resource and delivering it in their schools can get in touch with Bradford City FC Community Foundation via email at office@
