Maths

At Southbroom St James Academy we define Maths Mastery as a ‘deep, sustainable conceptual understanding for all.’

We achieve this through talking about, investigating and representing mathematical concepts. Children grow to ‘notice’ number and invest the time in experimenting, solving, concluding and explaining these patterns. They appreciate that mental calculations and written procedures, when chosen appropriately, can be performed efficiently, fluently and accurately to attain solutions.

They develop a breadth of understanding of number, parts of a whole (fractions, decimals & percentages), geometry, measure, statistics and problem solving and are able to apply this to the world around them.

These skills prepare children for further education and beyond, and enable them to foster a sense of confidence in their ability to understand the need for mathematics for their successful future.
