“For nothing is impossible with God.” (Luke 1:37)

Our Maths curriculum at SSMJ has been constructed to be ambitious to give all pupils the knowledge they need to succeed in life. We follow medium term plans in each year group and incorporate national resources such as the Curriculum Prioritisation in Maths written by the NCETM.

We incorporate a wealth of other resources such as WRM and Maths Mastery Hub Projects into our teaching with the aim that both our expectations and standards are high. 

We are  involved in the Mastering Number Project with the aim over time that children will leave KS1 with fluency in calculation and a confidence and flexibility with number. After the successful introduction and the brilliant results, this year we have also started Mastery in Number in Year 4 and 5. 

The language of mathematics is international. The basic skills of mathematics are vital for the life opportunities of our children. Our aim is for all children to think mathematically, enabling them to reason, solve problems and assess risk in a range of contexts.
