 The national curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils:

  • become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, including through varied and frequent practice with increasingly complex problems over time, so that pupils develop conceptual understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately
  • reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing relationships and generalisations, and developing an argument, justification or proof using mathematical language
  • can solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of routine and non-routine problems with increasing sophistication, including breaking down problems into a series of simpler steps and persevering in seeking solutions


Mathematics is an interconnected subject in which pupils need to be able to move fluently between representations of mathematical ideas. The programmes of study are, by necessity, organised into apparently distinct domains, but pupils should make rich connections across mathematical ideas to develop fluency.

We will be creating an exciting learning environment where the children will have opportunities to be creative, imaginative and explorative. This will be done through adult lead activities alongside child -initiated play. 

After half term we will be becoming pirates and mermaids. We will continue with text based stimulated activities that will be fun and informative for the children. Many of our learning activities will be led by the children’s interests and will be planned according to needs and abilities, covering all the areas of learning. Many of these will be recorded using ‘Evidence Me’, our assessment tool, which we love sharing with our parents!
