The official launch of a mathematics summer camp took place on Wednesday May 25, 2023 at The Sir Arthur Lewis Community College's Administrative Conference Room.
The two-week Math Camp will take place at the SALCC and Vieux-Fort Comprehensive Secondary School campuses from July 24 to August 3, 2023.
The lead agency for the initiative is The Alumni Association of the Tertiary Educational Institutions on the Morne (AATEIM), with support from SALCC, The Ministry of Education (MOE), Good News Project Inc. (GNP). as well as several other sponsors.
The theme identified for the Math Camp is “Together, we EVEN the ODDS.” The camp's primary goal is to improve the passing rate in CSEC Mathematics among secondary school students throughout Saint Lucia.
Critical focus will be placed on “refining the instructional practices of mathematics teachers,” as well as “building conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills within Fourth Form students.”
The Math Camp will be free of charge and will train 100 teachers and 200 Form Four students from around the island.
