Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI) is an independent national charity committed to improving mathematics education.

We support the teaching, learning and assessment of maths. We do this directly, through partnerships, and by influencing and advising on national policy relating to maths education.

We aim to develop confidence and enjoyment in maths, inspiring teachers and students to further their understanding and education in the subject.

Our support for maths education includes:
•	developing curriculum specifications and schemes of assessment
•	providing professional development opportunities for teachers
•	offering tuition and enrichment for students
•	publishing teaching and learning resources, including Integral, our online platform

Most of our work relates to the education of 11–18 year-olds, although we also support the teaching and learning of maths in primary, adult and higher education.

MEI manages the Advanced Mathematics Support Programme (AMSP), a government-funded initiative which aims to improve teaching and increase participation in secondary maths. 

MEI assists in the leadership of the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics (NCETM), which aims to raise achievement in maths across all years of education. 

We employ a highly committed team of staff. Our maths education specialists have a deep expertise in the teaching and learning of maths. They are based throughout England, which facilitates our engagement with teachers and students both locally and nationally. These colleagues are supported by a team of administrative, financial and technical staff working at our office in Trowbridge, Wiltshire. We also have trustees who serve as directors of the charity. They are committed to ensuring that MEI’s corporate governance is strong and our work is true to our values. 

Our work is supported by members, and by schools and colleges that have registered with us, free of charge, as MEI Educational Associates.
