Maths

The language of mathematics is international. The basic skills of mathematics are vital for the life opportunities of our children. Our aim is for all children to think mathematically, enabling them to reason, solve problems and assess risk in a range of contexts.

At Brady Primary School our curated mastery approach has been developed to ensure every child can achieve excellence in mathematics. Children can experience a sense of pride and achievement as they solve a problem for the first time, discover different solutions and make links between different areas of mathematics. It provides pupils with a deep understanding of the subject through a concrete, pictorial and abstract approach. This ensures pupils fully understand what they are learning.

We understand the significance that a fun, deep and broad mathematics education can have on outcomes for children both now and in their future. Like many other schools we follow the White Rose Maths Scheme of Learning (SoL) which has been developed by experts to build mathematical understanding through the principles of a ‘concrete, pictorial, abstract’ approach. We firmly believe that all children should have access to varied fluency, reasoning and problem-solving challenges in every teaching sequence.
