Our curriculum is committed to providing high quality mathematics teaching for all pupils. Mathematics underpins essential life skills. We want our pupils to see that mathematics can help them better understand and describe the world around them. We encourage them to see mathematics as a way of thinking rather than a collection of facts. The mathematics curriculum will be delivered using insightful assessment for learning that includes low stakes testing and targeted questioning so that we quickly identify what pupils need to know. The curriculum is logically sequenced to emphasise our golden threads. It is ambitious and aspirational and the faculty has high expectations for all, irrespective of starting points. It will deliver key skills, knowledge and understanding so that our young people leave school equipped to make a positive contribution to the society in which they live. This ensures that the intent of the faculty strongly matches the overarching School Curriculum intent.
