In Maths, we want to ensure all our pupils develop a sound understanding of basic mathematical concepts through direct teaching, practical and investigational work. Our children can demonstrate their skills and knowledge and talk about their work using appropriate mathematical language. They enjoy mathematics and develop a positive attitude to the subject.

As teachers we will immerse all with high quality resources to support a deep, conceptual understanding of Maths. Our curriculum has been carefully constructed which is sequential and progressive throughout our school. We give pupils the opportunity to demonstrate and apply their knowledge daily with plenty of opportunities to consolidate. In addition to this, we will continue to raise the profile of learning multiples of each number up to 12 (across the school), so that children are well equipped and fluent in their Times Tables by the end of Year 4.

Our children are flexible with number, apply their knowledge and are able to choose the most efficient based on the numbers involved. The children are shown how to work systematically, encouraged to seek their own challenges and shown that they can make mistakes, but how to learn from them!
