MATHS
Our Vision
At Queen’s Crescent School, we strive to deliver a stimulating and enjoyable Maths curriculum, whilst ensuring that through appropriate support and challenge, learning is tailored to each and every child.
We recognise that problem solving and application of maths in context is a fundamental quality of our children as mathematicians and this approach reflects the aims of the National Curriculum (2014).
Our aim for the children of Queen’s Crescent School is to thoroughly underpin mathematical learning by developing an even balance between conceptual understanding and procedural fluency, in order to develop the children’s arithmetic proficiency.
The National Curriculum (2014) aims that all children should have these skills:
Fluency - rapid and accurate recall and application of facts and concepts.
Reasoning - a growing confidence to justify ideas using mathematical language.
Problem Solving - the ability to solve problems by applying mathematics to a variety of routine and non-routine problems with increasing sophistication.
This is achieved through:
