White Rose Maths

Why We Use White Rose Maths at Killamarsh Junior School

 

At Killamarsh Junior School, we are committed to providing our pupils with a high-quality mathematics education that builds confidence, deepens understanding, and fosters a love of learning. That’s why we have chosen to adopt the White Rose Maths scheme across all year groups.

White Rose Maths is a carefully structured, research-informed programme that supports children in developing a secure and lasting understanding of mathematical concepts. It is designed to ensure that every child can achieve success in maths, regardless of their starting point.

Here’s why we believe White Rose Maths is the right choice for our school:

  • A Mastery Approach: The scheme promotes a mastery curriculum, encouraging children to develop a deep and secure understanding of mathematical concepts before moving on. This helps to build strong foundations for future learning.
  • Small Steps, Big Progress: Lessons are broken down into manageable steps, allowing children to build confidence and make steady progress. This approach ensures that no child is left behind and that all learners can access the curriculum.
  • Fluency, Reasoning, and Problem Solving: White Rose Maths balances fluency in key skills with opportunities for reasoning and problem-solving, helping children to become resilient, independent thinkers.
  • Consistency Across Year Groups: The scheme provides a coherent and consistent structure from Year 3 to Year 6, supporting smooth progression and helping teachers to plan effectively.
  • Engaging and Accessible Resources: With a wide range of visual representations, practical activities, and real-life contexts, White Rose Maths makes learning enjoyable and meaningful for all pupils.
  • Support for Teachers and Families: The scheme is backed by high-quality training and resources, enabling our teachers to deliver lessons with confidence. It also offers support materials for parents and carers, helping to strengthen the home-school partnership.

By using White Rose Maths, we are equipping our pupils with the skills they need to succeed in mathematics and beyond. We believe that every child can be a mathematician, and this scheme helps us to make that belief a reality.
