Mathematical Understanding

 

Mathematical Understanding Intent 

 

 

Our intent is to inspire a generation of mathematicians by embedding learning through the 5 Big Ideas of Maths Mastery.

We intend for our mathematics curriculum to be exceptional, enabling our children to explore the connectivity between their learning and real life, applying their knowledge to a broad range of representations and further developing their reasoning and logic skills. Additionally, the sequential nature of their learning will ensure children are able to learn and remember more, recalling prior knowledge and concepts regularly to support progression. Furthermore, children will demonstrate their mastery of mathematics by applying their knowledge to a broad range of contexts, supporting them through their education and life beyond.

We use the NCETM Curriculum Prioritisation in Primary Maths which sets out the aims for the programme of education across the school. It also outlines the structure for those aims to be implemented, including the knowledge and skills to be gained at each stage.
