Mathematics Curriculum
At Park Street we follow the White Rose Scheme for maths: https://whiterosemaths.com/
We have put together our own progression documents for learning in each year group, which can be found below. They are colour coded so that you can see the progression of learning objectives in each area of mathematics, through the school. These objectives are then used for assessment and to track progress in the Learning Ladders system.
Park Street Maths Progression – Year 1
Park Street Maths Progression – Year 2
Park Street Maths Progression – Year 3
Park Street Maths Progression – Year 4
Park Street Maths Progression – Year 5
Park Street Maths Progression – Year 6
Our maths subject leader is working with the Cambridge Maths Hub, to develop the mastery approach to maths at Park Street. To find out more about this, you can visit their website at https://whiterosemaths.com/
The internet is a rich resource of games, puzzles and activities to support and consolidate learning at home. This is especially true with Mathematics! We have the following available for use at home, but there are many more:

National Curriculum Aims
The national curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils:
- become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, including through varied and frequent practice with increasingly complex problems over time, so that pupils develop conceptual understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately.
- reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing relationships and generalisations, and developing an argument, justification or proof using mathematical language
- can solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of routine and non- routine problems with increasing sophistication, including breaking down problems into a series of simpler steps and persevering in seeking solutions.
