Basic Skills and Number Sense

At Allens Croft we acknowledge the importance of strong number sense in forming the solid foundation needed for maths acquisition. Number Sense Maths is used from Reception to Year 3 to teach the children a deep understanding of number, number relationships and fluency in addition and subtraction facts.

In Key Stage 2, the children’s learning is developed though Basic Skills sessions. These expose children to key concepts and skills that consolidate the procedures for key calculation methods through consistent practise and application.
