Impact of Maths

The impact of our Maths Curriculum is that children understand that Maths is a vital life skill that they will rely on in many areas of their daily life. They will have a positive view of Maths due to learning in an environment where Maths is promoted as being an exciting and enjoyable subject in which they can investigate and ask questions; they know it is reasonable to make mistakes because this can strengthen their learning  through the journey to finding an answer. Children are confident to “have a go” and choose the equipment they need to help them to learn along with the strategies they think are best suited to each problem.

Our children have a good understanding of their strengths and what they need to do in order to improve.  They demonstrate a quick recall of facts and procedures and are able to show and explain their thinking and reasoning in multiple ways. They are able to use mathematical language confidently and accurately. Our Maths books evidence work of a high standard of which children clearly take pride. Our feedback and interventions support children to strive to be the best mathematicians they can be, ensuring a high proportion of children are on track or above. Our school standards are high, we moderate our books both internally and externally and children are achieving well. We aim for all our children to be fully equipped to continue their successful learning journey on to secondary school and beyond.
