Maths Curriculum

Maths calculation skills are taught progressively at Lyndhurst Infant School and concepts are presented to children in a variety of ways to enrich their understanding. A range of models and images are used across the curriculum to support conceptual understanding and these can be seen in the Models and Images document below. Click on the other links below to see our progression documents for the four operations.

Progression in Addition and Subtraction

Progression in Multiplication and Division

Progression of Models and Images

In order for children to become more fluent in calculating, it is important that they master some key skills and facts in maths. Click on the link below to see our progression of Key Skills across the school. These are taught in class and the fortnightly maths homework focused on these skills for each year group. It is important for parents/carers to support their child in practising these skills frequently at home.

Key Skills Document

At the end of each academic year, the children are assessed against a set of criteria to see if they are at the expected standard for the year group that they are in. Annually we hold a Maths curriculum meeting for parents, where we talk through the end of year expectations for Early Years, Year 1 and Year 2 and gave practical advise for games and activities that you could do at home to support your child's progress in the Maths curriculum. This meeting usually occurs in the spring term.
