At Ireby, we believe that being mathematically fluent is a vital skill that every child needs to be successful in life and supports them to achieve our Christian vision, 'created to do good' Ephesians 2:10. To this end, our children go on a mathematical journey that will allow them to gain mastery of this fantastic subject.
Children across the school are taught skills and knowledge relevant to their year group. In Key Stage 2, children are taught in two classes split as Year 3/4 and Year 5 / 6. This allows us to focus on the needs of every child.
Our teaching of maths is supported by Hamilton Trust scheme written by Dr Ruth Mertens.
Their excellent resources ensure that skills and concepts are taught in small steps which support the children on their journey.
