Maths Mastery
This academic year we are involved with the following projects and initiatives:
Mastering Number at KS1 (Reception, Year 1 & 2)
Aims to secure firm foundations in the development of good number sense (a deep understanding of numbers). The aim over time is that children will leave KS1 and begin KS2 with fluency in calculation and a confidence and flexibility with numbers.
Mastering Number at KS2 (Years 4 & 5)
Aims to develop fluency in multiplication and division facts, and a confidence and flexibility with numbers that exemplifies good number sense. Due to our ongoing work and commitment to engage with current research and projects with Maths Mastery, we are one of a handful of schools across Sussex selected to be involved in this initiative this year.
Mastering Number Parent Project
Aims to provide guidance for parents/ carers, as well as providing home learning activities to enable children to develop their number sense at home.
Sustaining Mastery Work Group
A permanent form of support where schools can focus on continued improvement, consistency and refinement of teaching for mastery. Teachers, maths leads and headteachers are all involved, looking at collaborative planning and subject knowledge development.
