Maths
Intent, Implementation and Impact
Intent
- To develop confidence, enjoyment ad resilience in maths
- To develop fluency and understanding of number, shape, quantity and relationships
- To develop an understanding of maths as a tool for everyday tasks
- to develop skills in applying mathematical concepts and processes to solve problems
- To develop understanding of computational concepts and processes
Implementation
- To ensure full coverage of the maths curriculum we use NYCC's long term planning for mixed age classes alongside guidance from White Rose Maths
- Daily maths lessons include fluency, reasoning and problem solving
- All lessons are planed to include challenge and support appropriate for the needs of the children
- Concrete and pictorial representations are used to support understanding of mathematical concepts
- Formative assessment takes place during lessons in order to tackle misconceptions and to inform weekly planning
- Summative assessment takes place in October and May
Impact
- The vast majority of children end of year and end of keystage expectations
- The school has well-planned sequences of learning which to support and develop children's mathematical skills
- Children are independently able to apply their mathematical skills to increasingly complex and real problems
- Children are reasoning with increased confidence, fluency and enjoyment
