Mastering Number Programme (EYFS, KS1 and KS2)

At Grove Vale we aim to inspire all children to reach their full academic potential. In mathematics this means ensuring an ambitious curriculum that is fully inclusive of all children which:

• Ensures children at Grove Vale are emerged in a rich and high-quality math curriculum, enabling freedom to be creative.
• Gives children the chance to develop the power of resilience by believing in themselves when being faced with mathematical challenges.
• Encourages children have opportunities to be curious, making connections between mathematical processes and the world around them.
• Develops children as independent learners, having self-drive to be ambitious by being a part of progressing and challenging themselves and not being afraid to take risks.
• Makes sure fluency, problem solving and reasoning is developed sequentially to ensure children have a strong foundation to build upon and can recall facts quicker.

As a result of their learning in mathematics and problem solving across the curriculum children will:

• Show quick recall of mathematical facts and procedures.
• Be engaged in a risk-free math learning environment where
• Confidently and flexibly use, embed and link mathematical skills and processes across a range of contexts and representations, including real life situations.
• See the curriculum drivers are strongly evident within the math provision.
• Take an ambitious responsibility of their own learning, with evidence of independent self-driven learning and challenge.
• Have access to high quality and rich provision for fluency, problem solving and reasoning with mathematical vocabulary rooted in this.
