Redwood Park Academy

Maths

At Redwood Park Academy, we strive for excellence in mathematics achievement throughout the school. We hope to develop pupil’s abilities within a cross curricular programme. Across all classes, pupils are given opportunities to develop their maths fluency, ability to reason mathematically and to solve problems, within a balanced and exciting curriculum. Most importantly, at Redwood Park, we recognise that skill in maths is essential to a happy, healthy and independent adulthood and strive to prepare our pupils for this.

Pupils at Redwood Park Academy will:

  • develop a positive and confident attitude to mathematics
  • to make an active contribution to their own learning, by developing the skills of independence and enquiry
  • to become confident and competent working with mathematics
  • to develop an understanding of the ways in which information is gathered and presented
  • to become thinkers and problem solvers
  • to develop a clear understanding of the language of mathematics

Our strategy takes account of, and is guided by:

  • National Curriculum for Mathematics (2014)
  • Advice and training by a number of SEN specialists such as Les Staves, Peter Imray and NASEN.
  • Edexcel Person Entry Level 1-3 Functional Skills in Mathematics
  • AQA Level 1 and Level 2 in Mathematics
