Maths at Woodbank

Woodbank Primary school recognises that maths is both a key skill within school, and a life skill to be utilised through everyday experiences. A high-quality maths education provides a firm foundation for understanding how maths is used in everyday life and activities, developing pupil’s ability to reason mathematically.

Through the teaching of Maths at Woodbank Primary School we aim to develop:

· A positive attitude towards maths and an awareness of the relevance of maths in the real world.

· A process of enquiry and experiment.

· An ability to solve problems and think logically in order to work systematically and accurately.

· An ability to work independently and in cooperation with others.

· Competence and confidence in pupil’s maths knowledge, concepts and skills.

· An appreciation of the creative aspects of maths and an awareness of its aesthetic appeal.
