Mathematics
Scout Road Academy use The White Rose maths schemes of work. All teaching staff have attended refresher training sessions to keep their skills up to date and linked to current teaching practices. We teach in mixed age classes. One hour per day is dedicated to the teaching of maths.
Our calculation policy shows how we teach children the four basic operations in maths. We teach through an approach which begins with a concrete concept, through to a pictorial concept and finally to an abstract concept. There is no time limit as to how long individual children spend on each concept, their understanding sets the pace of learning. Our aim is to ensure that every child is challenged within lessons.
Please find links to each of the year groups long term maths plans. These plans are not set in stone and teachers may deviate in the length of time spent on specific topics, however, all topics will be covered over the course of the year:
The maths progression grid shows a summary of objectives within each area of maths aligned to expected attainment in year groups:
