Overview

Our mathematics curriculum builds strong foundations to develop confident, fluent and resilient mathematicians.

From the earliest years, children explore number, shape and measure through structured play, songs and stories, progressing to formal problem-solving and reasoning in Key Stages 1 and 2.

Using the Maths – No Problem approach, lessons develop fluency, understanding and application through guided, practical and independent practice, supported by regular retrieval tasks and fluency activities.

Pupils also benefit from Assertive Mentoring Maths to reinforce essential skills, ensuring progress and confidence in applying maths in a range of contexts.

Pupils develop secure knowledge and instant recall of number facts through daily ‘Maths Blast’ activities and engaging online platforms.

Numbots helps children build understanding, recall and fluency in addition and subtraction, while Times Tables Rock Stars boosts instant recall of multiplication and division facts, supporting confidence and success in more complex calculations.
