Real classrooms. Real results.
NHUSTA's impact is measured not just in test scores, but in the moments when a learner who believed they could not do Mathematics discovers that they can. These are the numbers behind those moments.
94%
report increased confidence in Mathematics
Confidence that lasts.
Learners who engage with NHUSTA show measurable improvements in mathematical confidence not just in the short term, but sustained over the following academic year. Confidence is the foundation everything else is built on.
87%
of teachers report improved classroom confidence
Teachers who feel supported.
NHUSTA is designed to support teachers, not replace them. Teachers who use NHUSTA in their classrooms report feeling more confident in their own Mathematics teaching and more equipped to reach every learner.
3 in 4
learners share the game with their families
Communities that engage.
The NHUSTA Board Game travels home with learners sparking Mathematics conversations between children and their families. Learning does not stop at the school gate.
Built on evidence. Refined by practice.
NHUSTA's approach is grounded in peer reviewed research and continuously refined through real classroom experience. We partner with leading South African universities and research institutions to measure, improve, and share what we learn.
Longitudinal learner studies
OngoingMulti year tracking of learner outcomes across schools using NHUSTA measuring confidence, conceptual understanding, and curriculum performance.
Teacher professional development
OngoingResearch into how NHUSTA changes teacher practice and how to maximise the professional development impact of the programme
Culturally responsive pedagogy
In progressCollaboration with university partners to document and publish the NHUSTA approach to culturally responsive Mathematics education.
Adaptive learning efficacy
PlannedMeasuring the impact of the NHUSTA Digital Companion's adaptive learning engine on learner outcomes compared to non adaptive digital tools.
Building this together.
NHUSTA works with schools, NGOs, government departments, universities, and private sector partners who share our commitment to quality Mathematics education for every South African learner.
Education partners
Schools, school districts, and provincial education departments who implement NHUSTA in their classrooms.
Research partners
South African universities and research institutions who collaborate on the evidence base behind NHUSTA.
Funding partners
Foundations, corporates, and development finance institutions who fund NHUSTA's reach into under resourced schools.

After-school clubs
Weekly Mathematics clubs in community centres using the NHUSTA Board Game and facilitated by trained community educators.
Holiday programmes
Intensive Mathematics learning programmes during school holidays combining the board game, digital companion, and Studio content.
Parent engagement
Workshops for parents and caregivers building mathematical confidence at home and extending the NHUSTA learning ecosystem into families.
