Mathematics
At Guru Nanak Sikh Academy Primary, we aim to deliver a mathematics curriculum that inspires a passion for the subject while fostering confident and resilient learners. Through careful planning and engaging learning experiences, pupils are given the opportunity to master the fundamentals of mathematics, develop fluency, and apply mathematical reasoning to increasingly sophisticated problems. As pupils progress through the curriculum, they are supported by targeted teaching, additional practice, and retrieval activities to reinforce long-term memory and consolidate their understanding. Our use of online platforms such as Times Table Rockstars and Manga High further enhances engagement with multiplication and promotes continued learning both at school and at home.
Our Mathematics department is dedicated to providing a rewarding and enjoyable learning experience for all pupils, preparing them to become numerate, confident individuals ready to tackle mathematical challenges in both their careers and adult lives. As pupils move on to secondary school, the curriculum continues to challenge them with increasingly complex concepts, ensuring they are equipped with the skills needed for success. Through bespoke lessons tailored to pupils’ needs, we ensure that all pupils are motivated and encouraged to reach their full potential. High expectations are combined with a curriculum designed to promote analysis, reasoning, creativity, collaboration, and self-evaluation, enabling students to approach mathematical problems with confidence, thoughtfulness, and enthusiasm.
