flag Australia trials new math screening tool to catch learning gaps early in 200 schools.

flag Australia faces a growing numeracy crisis, prompting experts to advocate for early, frequent screening of young students’ foundational math skills. flag A new tool, the Early Number Sense Screener for Australia (ENSSA), is being trialed in about 200 schools and aims to quickly identify at-risk students by measuring how efficiently they solve problems, not just if answers are correct. flag Current assessments are often slow and one-on-one, missing early warning signs. flag State governments plan to implement universal screening across all schools within the next year. flag Experts say embedding early number sense into the curriculum and using regular, brief assessments could significantly improve long-term math outcomes.
