Maths

A Maths Vision for our School

Here at Radcliffe on Trent Infant and Nursery School we endeavour to:

• promote enjoyment and enthusiasm for learning through practical activity, exploration and discussion;
• promote confidence and competence with numbers and the number system;
• Children being able to confidently reason why they have arrived at a particular answer;
• develop the ability to solve problems through decision-making and reasoning in a range of contexts;
• develop a practical understanding of the ways in which information is gathered and presented;
• explore features of shape and space, and develop measuring skills in a range of contexts;
• understand the importance of mathematics in everyday life.

In Years 1 and 2 children follow the White Rose scheme of work to ensure children gain a deeper understanding of Maths.
