A progressive calculation policy is implemented across the school to ensure consistency and progression.
Prior knowledge is recapped through lesson starters to ensure that concepts have been learnt and remembered.
Times Tables Rockstars, Numbots and Mathletics are used to support the children in consolidating taught number facts outside of the classroom learning time.
