## Maths

We follow the White Rose Progression ladders[ ](https://wrm-13b48.kxcdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/National-Curriculum-Progression-Mixed-Age.pdf)within our Maths lessons, which supports our planning and mathematical concepts taken from our Coughton Calculation Policy 2020.

We aim to provide a stimulating and exciting learning environment that takes account of different learning styles and uses appropriate resources to maximise teaching and learning. Through our creative approach to teaching and learning we also seek to explore and utilise further opportunities to use and apply mathematics across all subject areas.

We use a mastery approach to maths teaching. This is a research-driven teaching and learning method that meets the goals of the National Curriculum.

What does it mean in practice? In summary, a mastery approach:

- **Puts numbers first:** Our schemes have number at their heart, because we believe confidence with numbers is the first step to competency in the curriculum as a whole.
- **Puts depth before breadth:** We reinforce knowledge again and again.
- **Encourages collaboration:** Children can progress through the schemes as a group, supporting each other as they learn.
- **Focuses on fluency, reasoning and problem solving:** It gives children the skills they need to become competent mathematicians.

At the heart of our mastery approach is the Concrete Pictorial Abstract (CPA) approach. Research shows that when children are introduced to a new concept, working with concrete physical resources and pictorial representations leads to a better understanding of abstract concepts. We use CPA throughout our schemes of learning.
