    Implementation<\/span><\/h3>

    Our pupils should be able to organise their knowledge, skills and understanding around the following learning hooks:<\/p>

    • Know and use numbers\u00a0<\/p><\/li>

    • Add and subtract\u00a0<\/p><\/li>

    • Multiply and divide\u00a0<\/p><\/li>

    • Use fractions\u00a0<\/p><\/li>

      Impact<\/span><\/h3>

      Assessment<\/strong><\/p>

      Through the explicit teaching of the Mathematical skills, both the teachers and the pupils assess their learning continuously throughout the lesson.<\/p>

      Our assessment systems enable teachers to make informed judgements about the depth of their learning and the progress they have made over time. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

      Calculations Policy<\/span><\/h3>

      \u00a0<\/p>

      This policy aims to give Stonegate C of E Primary and Pre-School teachers guidance linked to the progression in teaching and learning of written calculations from Nursery to year 6.<\/p>

      The following calculation policy has been devised to meet requirements of the National Curriculum 2014 for the teaching and learning of mathematics, and is also designed to give pupils a consistent and smooth progression of learning in calculations across the school. Please note that early learning in number and calculation in\u00a0Pre-school<\/u>\u00a0and\u00a0Reception<\/u>\u00a0follows the Development Matters EYFS document, and this calculation policy is designed to build on progressively from the content and methods established in the Early Years Foundation Stage.\u00a0<\/p>

      Age stage expectations<\/strong><\/p>

      The calculation policy is organised according to age stage expectations as set out in the National Curriculum 2014,\u00a0however it is vital that pupils are taught according to the stage that they are currently working at,<\/strong>\u00a0being moved onto the next level as soon as they are ready, or working at a lower stage until they are secure enough to move on.<\/p>

      Providing a context for calculation:<\/strong><\/p>

      It is important that any type of calculation is given a real life context or problem solving approach to help build children\u2019s understanding of the purpose of calculation, and to help them recognise when to use certain operations and methods when faced with problems. This must be a priority within calculation lessons.<\/p><\/div>
