Mathematics at St Richard's
Mathematics is in its own way, the poetry of logical ideas. - Albert Einstein
Mathematics in Key Stage 2
During Key Stage 2 pupils use the number system more confidently. They move from counting reliably to calculating fluently with all four number operations. They always try to tackle a problem with mental methods before using any other approach. Pupils explore features of shape and space and develop their measuring skills in a range of contexts. They discuss and present their methods and reasoning using a wider range of mathematical language, diagrams and charts.
