Mathematics
At Athersley North Primary school, we aim for every pupil to develop a secure understanding of mathematics, equipping them with the skills of calculation, reasoning and problem solving that they need in life beyond school. Our mathematics curriculum offers pupils a practical and engaging range of learning experiences.
We represent mathematical problems and numbers in different ways ensuring pupils access a range of concrete, abstract and pictorial representations. Staff and pupils promote and use a range of mathematical vocabulary which allows them to explain and discuss their understanding and give reasons for their choices.
Pupils are appropriately challenged and support is provided to ensure all pupils can access the mathematics curriculum. We hope every pupil will enjoy mathematics and see the value and importance of mathematics skills in everyday life.
