St Mary’s is a school where all children are valued and where all staff work hard to help every child. This is central to our teaching and learning offer where we want the children to be the best they can be.
Through this, we ensure our pupils have the opportunity to work as mathematicians across a creative and purposeful curriculum, enabling them to see the importance of maths within the world in which we live. Our curriculum provides the learners with meaningful opportunities to understand the importance of fluency and being able to recall known facts, whilst building on their ability to reason and problem solve across the ability range. Challenging and enriching age-appropriate mathematical knowledge and skills (adapted when necessary) once taught, are explored and revisited at the appropriate level for each learner. As a result, our pupils develop greater resilience and self-confidence in applying their knowledge. The collaboration between peers, and the relationship between learners and their class teacher drives the learning and inform the content, strategies and real-world contextualisation to maximise on the progress and learning opportunities. Our lessons are stimulating and empower our pupils with the knowledge, concepts and the skills they need to explore further, when making and developing their mathematical connections.
