Mathematics

Our principal aim is to develop children’s knowledge, skills and understanding by becoming fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, reasoning mathematically and solving problems by applying their mathematics.

White Rose Maths schemes of learning are used as a starting point in order to develop a coherent and comprehensive conceptual pathway through the mathematics. The focus is on the whole class progressing together and planning is carried out in year groups to ensure consistency across classes. Planning takes into account pupil’s previous experiences and individual needs, and covers all aspects of the curriculum. It seeks to make sure there is continuity and consistency across and between all key stages.

A separate maths key skills session is delivered daily in all year groups which is aimed explicitly at developing fluency with number, number bonds, times tables and the 4 operations.
