Mathematics

At Little Parndon Primary Academy, our approach to mathematics is shaped by our vision of "shaping futures through education" and our commitment to developing "The Little Parndon Child." We believe that every child should leave our school as a confident, fluent mathematician with a deep understanding of number, reasoning, and problem-solving.

Our Maths Curriculum

We follow the White Rose Maths scheme, a highly respected, research-based programme designed to build a strong mathematical foundation for all learners. The White Rose approach fosters:

Deep understanding – Pupils explore concepts in depth to develop a secure and lasting grasp of mathematics.
Confidence and fluency – Children build skills progressively, allowing them to tackle increasingly complex problems.
Real-world application – Maths is made meaningful through problem-solving and reasoning activities.

White Rose Maths is informed by world-class research and expertise, ensuring our pupils receive the highest standard of maths education. It is used by schools across the UK and internationally to drive strong, secure learning and real progress.
