Mathematics at Christ the King
At Christ the King Catholic Primary School we provide an exciting, varied and well-constructed maths curriculum, through White Rose Maths. Our Maths curriculum takes into account the needs of all learners and is ambitious for every child. Our broad and balanced curriculum aims to inspire children to enjoy Mathematics whilst developing the knowledge and skills required to succeed in life and apply their learning in new contexts. At Christ the King, we strive for all our pupils to become confident, successful and resilient mathematicians, who feel able use and apply what they have learned, making connections to solve an array of mathematical challenges.
Daily retrieval practice of key concepts previously taught is a fundamental part of our maths curriculum. Fluent knowledge of key concepts will allow children’s working memory to be freed up in order to solve problems, allowing them to apply their knowledge in a variety of ways. We use a concrete, pictorial, abstract approach when introducing new concepts and we also ensure that misconceptions are addressed in every lesson. Our aim is for children to be able to independently apply the concepts they have learned to new problems in unfamiliar situations.
