Mathematics

 

The National Curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils become fluent, reason mathematically and can solve problems. Our intention is to provide a high quality Mathematics education which provides a foundation for understanding the world, the ability to reason mathematically, an appreciation of the beauty and power of mathematics and a sense of enjoyment and curiosity about the subject.

 

We teach a daily maths lesson using the Singapore Maths mastery approach. In the mastery approach the focus is on developing fluency reasoning and problem solving to deepen pupil’s knowledge and understanding. Teachers use the planning tool on the Maths No Problem website. This approach provides challenge for all pupils.

Big Maths

Additionally, we teach a daily mental maths session. Every Friday, children complete a mental maths test and the expectation is that children progress through the levels with the aim of reaching the ultimate challenge.

Big Maths offers a clear, systematic approach for teaching maths.

 

Since adopting the Big Maths approach, our pupil’s mental arithmetic skills have gone from strength to strength, which has impacted significantly on our standards and exam results.

Winning With Numbers

Every child needs to acquire number knowledge. Winning With Numbers provides access to a structured and systematic programme for number...it's like phonics for maths! The programme builds a strong foundation that children need to achieve higher standards in the wider mathematics curriculum. Winning With Numbers identifies 300 pieces of number knowledge and lines them up in a straight-line sequence of learning. The Winning With Numbers curriculum is simple to use and all 300 parts come with a comprehensive suite of digital teaching, learning and training resources that can be used in school and at home.

We teach this alongside the Big Maths learn its to further strengthen our mathematics across the school.

Maths - No Problem!

 

The whole class works through the programme of study at the same pace with ample time on each topic before moving on. Ideas are revisited at higher levels as the curriculum spirals through the years.

Differentiated activities

 

Tasks and activities are designed to be easy for pupils to enter while still containing challenging components. For advanced learners, the textbooks also contain non-routine questions for pupils to develop their higher-order thinking skills.

 

Problem solving

 

Lessons and activities are designed to be taught using problem-solving approaches to encourage pupils’ higher-level thinking. The focus is on working with pupils’ core competencies, building on what they know to develop their relational understanding, based on Richard Skemp’s work.

 

Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract (CPA) approach

 

Based on Jerome Bruner’s work, pupils learn new concepts initially using concrete examples, such as counters, then progress to drawing pictorial representations before finally using more abstract symbols, such as the equals sign.

 

 

Variation

 

The questions and examples are carefully varied by expert authors to encourage pupils to think about the maths. Rather than provide mechanical repetition, the examples are designed to deepen pupils’ understanding and reveal misconceptions.
