At Morecambe Bay Community Primary School, we want every child to enjoy and succeed in mathematics. We follow the White Rose Maths scheme from Nursery through Year 6, ensuring a clear, consistent approach that builds understanding step by step.
-
In Nursery and Reception, children explore early number concepts through play and practical activities, developing strong foundations for later learning.
-
In Reception and Key Stage 1, we also use the Mastering Number programme to secure fluency with number facts and deepen understanding of number relationships.
-
Across all year groups, we focus on:
-
Fluency – knowing and using number facts confidently.
-
Reasoning – explaining and justifying answers.
-
Problem-solving – applying skills in real-life contexts.
We use practical resources, visual models, and rich discussion to make mathematics meaningful and enjoyable. By the end of primary school, children leave us with strong mathematical foundations and a positive attitude towards the subject.
