Mathematics is taught daily. We follow the White Rose maths scheme of work across the school. White Rose is progressive and sequential, revisiting prior learning to ensure understanding. Our focus for teaching is around; Number including addition, subtraction, multiplication, division and fractions, Geometry including 2D and 3D shapes and position, Measurement including weight, length, height, volume, capacity and time, Statistics including charts and graphs and data interpretation.
We aim to ensure all pupils:
- develop a sound understanding of basic mathematical concepts through direct teaching, practical and investigational work
