Maths
At Blundeston, we adopt a Mastery Approach to the teaching of Maths. This approach is outlined by the National Centre for the Teaching of Excellence in Mathematics.
“Pupils are taught through whole-class interactive teaching, where the focus is
on all pupils working together on the same lesson content at the same time.
This ensures that all can master concepts before moving to the
next part of the curriculum sequence, allowing no pupil to be left behind.”
NCTEM – The Essence of Maths Teaching for Mastery 2016
The maths curriculum is planned using the National Curriculum expectations for each year group. Planning is taken from White Rose Maths, supported by resources from NCTEM. Maths is taught daily as a “stand alone” subject, although teachers will make meaningful links across the curriculum where appropriate.
