Maths
We aim to create mathematicians who are fluent in all areas of maths and can use this deep understanding to reason and problem solve.
At Alt, we follow the White Rose Maths Scheme, which focuses on an ‘every child can’ approach through concrete, pictorial and abstract strategies to develop and build competency. Lessons are planned to systematically teach children how to use structured models such as ‘bar modelling’ and ‘maths talk’ to support their learning and encourage independence.
Children in all groups can access the maths curriculum and have strategies to support them to visualise word problems, use mathematical language and explain their reasoning.
