We believe that it is essential to prepare our children for a rapidly

changing world through the use of mathematical, systematical and

logical thinking; because maths is an integral part of everyday life. 

​

We aim to provide all children with a uniquely powerful set of

mathematical tools to help them make sense of, understand and

eventually change the world in which we live.  These tools

include arithmetical aptitude (problems involving adding, subtracting, multiplying,

or dividing numbers), logical reasoning, problem solving and the ability to apply their thinking in abstract ways.

​

We aim to develop independent children who are inquisitive, creative, numerically literate, confident and financially responsible. Through the provision of a stimulating learning environment and a wide range of concrete resources, we aim to develop every child’s mathematical skills to the furthest reach of their potential.

​

Maths is at the forefront of our daily curriculum. From Magic Maths in the morning, daily arithmetic sessions and inspirational teaching and learning in our main maths lessons we aim to:

 

• Provide a mathematics curriculum that will provide progressive, broad, coherent and deep learning experiences that are relevant, challenging and enjoyable

• Deliver high quality teaching and learning experiences that foster and nurture positive and enthusiastic attitudes towards mathematics

• Build confidence in all learners through a range of well planned problems in a range of contexts

• The opportunity to use a range of concrete materials to develop understanding of some of the trickier aspects of maths

• Use a variety of ICT and practical equipment to give pupils the chance to explore maths in the real world

• Where needed, offer support and scaffolding appropriately to meet the needs of all learners, stretching and deepening their understanding of each strand of mathematics

• Seek opportunities to extend every pupil’s mathematics skills through the use of open ended investigations and challenges

• Produce mathematicians who are fluent, capable and confident, developing automaticity to become future problem solvers
