MATHS
Mathematics is important in everyday life and, with this is mind, the purpose of Mathematics at Rowledge C of E Primary School is to develop an ability to solve problems, to reason, to think logically and to work systematically and accurately. All children are challenged and encouraged to excel in Maths.
Arithmetic and basic maths skills are practised daily to ensure key mathematical concepts are embedded and children can recall this information to see the links between topics in Maths.
The programmes of study are, by necessity, organised into apparently distinct domains, but pupils should make rich connections across mathematical ideas to develop fluency, mathematical reasoning and competence in solving increasingly sophisticated problems. Our curriculum ensure children apply mastery skills.

SCHOOL CURRICULUM
PROGRESSION & ASSESSMENT
We have aligned a progression of skills and knowledge with the programmes of study for each year group.
The documents below outline this progression and are used when assessing the ongoing progress of pupils.
PUPIL VOICE
We regularly conference pupils to gain an awareness of their attitudes to a range of curriculum subjects. Below is a sample of thoughts from a range of pupils about how they feel about the Maths curriculum at Rowledge.
KS1 PUPIL
"I think maths is hard but good. It feels really good when you have learnt something that you didn't think you would be able to do."
LOWER KS2 PUPIL
"Maths can be challenging but I really like it. I like that there are different levels of challenges and that you learn about different areas of maths each unit.
If there is something challenging for you, there are adults that can help you to push yourself"
UPPER KS2 PUPIL
"It is really good because you can learn lots of tricks to use what you know about number in new areas!
Recently, we learnt about different properties of numbers and about prime numbers."
