Maths

At St Stephen's we intend to provide a Maths curriculum which allows children to reason mathematically through creative and engaging lessons. We want children to make rich connections across mathematical ideas to develop fluency, mathematical reasoning and competence in solving increasingly sophisticated problems. As our pupils progress, we intend for our pupils to be able to understand the world, have the ability to reason mathematically, have an appreciation of the beauty and power of mathematics, and a sense of enjoyment and curiosity of the subject.

We currently follow the White Rose scheme of work which develops a whole new culture of deep understanding, confidence and competence in maths. This culture produces strong, secure learning and real progress and we use the policy which supports this.
