Maths

Each school within the Trust follows the National Curriculum for Mathematics. The National Curriculum for Maths aims to ensure that all pupils:

 

  •          Become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics through varied and frequent practice with complexity increasing over time.
  •          Develop conceptual understanding and ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately.
  •          Reason mathematically; follow a line of enquiry, conjecture relationships and generalisations.
  •          Develop an argument, justification and proof by using mathematical language.
  •          Problem solve by applying knowledge to a variety of routine and non-routine problems breaking down problems into simpler steps and persevering in answering

  

Teachers follow the National Curriculum to ensure that Maths objectives are covered during their timetabled lessons.  A wide range of resources are also used to support the teaching of Maths, including White Rose.  Multiplication tables are a focus (within school and at home) for KS2 pupils and in KS1 number facts are taught and practised to support with this.
