Maths

'Mathematics is essential to everyday life, critical to science, technology and engineering, and necessary for financial literacy and most forms of employment.  A high-quality mathematics education therefore provides a foundation for understanding the world, the ability to reason mathematically, an appreciation of the beauty and power of mathematics, and a sense of enjoyment and curiosity about the subject.’  (National Curriculum, 2014)

At Wood Fold we aim to provide the pupils with a mathematics curriculum and high-quality teaching to produce individuals who are numerate, creative, independent, inquisitive, enquiring and confident.  We also aim to provide a stimulating environment and adequate resources so that pupils can develop their mathematical skills to the full.

‘Mathematics is not about numbers, equations, computations, or algorithms. It is about understanding.’  William Paul Thurston.
