Mathematics
The curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils
- become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, including through varied and frequent practice with increasingly complex problems over time, so that pupils develop conceptual understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately.
- reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing relationships and generalisations, and developing an argument, justification or proof using mathematical language
- can solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of routine and non-routine problems with increasing sophistication, including breaking down problems into a series of simpler steps and persevering in seeking solutions.
Pupils begin their Maths journey with us during the Early Years Foundation Stage and the starting point of our curriculum design includes the area for learning development of 'Mathematics'. The curriculum we deliver in Reception lays the foundations for the learning that will take place in subsequent years.
