New Maths Calculation Policy

We are pleased to announce the release of our new and improved Maths Calculation Policy. As a school, we value very highly any support you, as parents, are able to offer your child at home; this document has therefore been written to provide you with the guidance you will need in order to assist your child with the appropriate mental and written calculation strategies they are using in class.

The emphasis, initially, is on mental calculations skills, but progresses to the written strategies that your child is expected to become familiar with. Whilst this document has been organised into the expected outcomes for each year group, it is important to recognise that children develop their mathematical skills at different rates and that you should work with your child, using a combination of practical, mental and written activities, at a level that is suitable to them.
