Intent
The principal aim of the Maths Curriculum at South Kilvington is to create an ‘everyone can do maths’ culture. We strive to ensure all children are supported, yet challenged to become confident mathematicians. We place great emphasis on developing understanding of the key concepts and language of maths, recalling key facts off by heart, and learning calculation strategies and methods to confidently reason and solve problems.
Implementation
Maths is taught daily across the school following the CPR approach to developing mastery; Conceptual Understanding, Procedural Fluency, Reasoning and Problem Solving.
Teachers make use of a wide variety of practical resources for mastery teaching and follow the concrete, pictorial, then abstract sequence. For each topic theme key vocabulary, definitions and strategies are displayed on working walls in each classroom and pupils have Knowledge Organisers of these to support their learning. (Please see individual Class web-pages for e copies.)
Partnership with Parents
Parents are actively encouraged to support their children with Maths homework and to help them to learn key maths facts at home. ‘Helping at Home’ Booklets for each year group setting out objectives, key vocabulary and calculation methods help to support this partnership can be found below along with the school's Maths Vocabulary document and Calculation Policy.
