Maths Organisation and Enrichment

Organisation

The curriculum follows the EYFS Statutory Framework and the National Curriculum objectives.

Learning follows a series of ‘small steps’ designed to build conceptual knowledge incrementally across each Key Stage.

From EYFS upwards, mathematics is taught conceptually to develop a deeper level of understanding; not just the application of algorithms or memorisation of facts.

Spiralling within the curriculum allows opportunities to apply and refine concepts in new contexts and subject specific vocabulary builds and extends within and across units.

Enrichment

 

Units of learning in all year groups aim to follow a ‘concrete, pictorial, abstract’ approach to reveal concepts using a variety of resources, images and contexts that appeal to a range of learning styles.

Maths lessons are designed to be interactive and encourage children to be active learners through discussion, collaboration and refinement of their ideas.

Where appropriate, online tools are used to enhance knowledge both in school and as homework activities. 

Children are encouraged to apply numerical, statistical, measuring and geometric skills through cross curricular links during lessons in other curriculum areas.
