At Grange Primary School, we believe that mathematics equips pupils with a uniquely powerful set of tools to understand and change the world. These tools include logical reasoning, problem solving skills and the ability to think in abstract ways. Mathematics is important in everyday life; it is integral to all aspects of life and with this in mind, we endeavour to ensure that children develop a positive and enthusiastic attitude towards mathematics that will stay with them.

​

Our aim at Grange Primary School is to provide high-quality, meaningful teaching and learning experiences in mathematics so our children become enthusiastic, confident and independent mathematicians. Therefore, we will:

• set high expectations so our children will achieve their full potential.

• respond to our pupils’ diverse learning needs in accordance with guidelines in the National Curriculum by providing a broad and balanced mathematics curriculum.

• ensure that children are taught through the concrete, pictorial and abstract sequence of learning to ensure a deep and thorough understanding of the mathematical principle they are learning.

• ensure that all children, no matter their ability, will be able to access age-appropriate mathematics lessons through clear success criteria, differentiation and resources.
