Mary-Kate Connolly joins Rethink Maths as Managing Director

We’re absolutely thrilled to announce that Mary-Kate Connolly is joining Rethink Maths as our new Managing Director!

Mary-Kate brings a wealth of experience in education, leadership, and curriculum development and more importantly, she brings the kind of deep-rooted passion for mathematics that aligns perfectly with everything we stand for.

Mary-Kate is a true believer that maths is for everyone.  She has spent her career to date championing inclusive, impactful teaching and helping teachers support children in making sense of maths, building confidence, understanding, and enjoyment every step of the way.

In her role as Managing Director, Mary-Kate will be overseeing the day-to-day running of Rethink Maths and playing a key role in driving forward our work across the five missions we care deeply about – from building solid foundations and growing confidence, to making maths more inclusive, real-world focused, and joyful to teach.

“We couldn’t be more excited to have Mary-Kate take on this role. Her energy, empathy, and sharp strategic thinking will help bring to life everything Rethink Maths is setting out to achieve.”
