Maths

Maths at The Downs provides a fun, creative, progressive and planned learning journey. All children have an opportunity to succeed. During their time at the school, children build a mathematical toolkit which they are able to utilise and apply throughout their lives. A practical approach, giving children the chance to use maths in real life situations, is encouraged and links to the Enhanced Curriculum we offer at the school. In the classroom, resources are available to can be self-selected to enable all to reach their potential. Children are encouraged to discuss ideas, support others and develop a 'have-a-go' attitude.
