What is Dyscalculia Day?

Dyscalculia Day (3rd March) aims to raise awareness and bring attention to the challenges faced by those with dyscalculia, provide educational resources, and promote understanding in schools, homes and workplaces.

It aims to increase awareness, reduce stigma, and advocate for better support and accommodations for people with dyscalculia.
People with dyscalculia may struggle with number sense, arithmetic, understanding patterns, dealing with money and telling the time.
This day is part of a broader effort to improve access to learning and support for people with various learning differences.

It is an opportunity to support our dyscalculia community and make a difference to millions of adults and children with this underdiagnosed and underrepresented learning difficulty.
