About Magma

Magma is a startup that has quickly grown to become the leading platform for data-driven maths education. By leveraging handwritten solutions in a digital format, Magma allows teachers to place emphasis on creativity in maths, while gaining key insights into pupil progression. This creates a more engaging, inclusive and pedagogical maths class for all pupils. 

Maths remains the largest challenge for schools, where one in five pupils in year 9 are low performers. Maths is one of the core pillars on which careers are built, and we believe that primary and secondary school maths represents one of the largest opportunities at improving educational outcomes and career prospects for children and young adults. 

Originally founded in Stockholm, Magma is now growing rapidly across the UK, Europe and the US. We are an ambitious team on a meaningful mission of improving maths education for millions of children.
