MATHS

At Redesdale Primary School we believe that all pupils can achieve in mathematics. We believe that at each stage of learning, children should be able to demonstrate deep, conceptual understanding of a topic and build on this over time. We want children to be able to not only recall and use the maths taught but to also be able to transfer and apply it in different contexts, being able to reason and problem solve. This deep learning is what we are aiming for by teaching maths using the mastery approach.

The teaching of maths at Redesdale embraces all of our wider Curriculum Drivers and we believe that maths can:

• Spark a love of learning;
• Enrich learning with real-life experiences;
• Develop life-long communicators;
• Foster emotionally-intelligent individuals

By focusing on these identified drivers and placing them at the heart of our curriculum we believe our children will be ready to successfully meet the challenges of the next stage of their education.

 

OVERVIEW

 

We use the White Rose Maths (WRM) resources to support our delivery of maths and as such, follow their Scheme of Learning overviews.  We also use the NCETM Curriculum Prioritisation materials to support our teaching and we are planning to transition into using these resources and their curriculum mapping on a more regular cycle in the next academic year (September 2022):
