Maths Curriculum Intent
Mathematics is important in everyday life and therefore, the purpose of Mathematics at Kinderley is to develop an ability to solve problems, to reason, to think logically and to work systematically and accurately to prepare children to use Maths throughout their lives. All children are challenged and encouraged to excel in Maths, using the White Rose Hub scheme as a basis. New mathematical concepts are introduced using a ‘Concrete, Pictorial and Abstract’ approach; enabling all children to use manipulatives to enhance their learning when discovering new mathematical topics, and allows them to have clear models and images to aid their understanding. Arithmetic and basic mathematical skills are practiced daily to ensure key mathematical concepts are embedded and children can recall this information to see the links between topics in Maths.
