Intent
At Oldfield Brow Primary School, we aim to help children become resilient and confident mathematicians, through our curriculum where key concepts are delivered, explored and revisited to allow children to demonstrate fluency. We encourage children to work both collaboratively and independently to apply their knowledge and skills to a wide range of reasoning and problem-solving contexts. We aim to support or extend pupils within lessons so that learning is ambitious for all and they can learn alongside each other to develop mastery of the curriculum.

Mathematical Fluency
At Oldfield Brow, we aim to ensure that every child becomes a true master of mathematics. A key part of our ‘mastery’ approach to teaching and learning focuses on developing our children’s fluency in both recall and flexibility in the application of numbers across the entire curriculum. To support our learners in developing the number sense required to achieve our vision of mastery mathematicians, we have developed a specific curriculum that focuses on the development of our children’s conceptual understanding of ‘number’ and its application across the curriculum. We particularly focus on ensuring that our learners can both rapidly recall number facts as well as select the most efficient strategy for calculation, both on their own and when needed across the wider mathematics curriculum.
Fluency is taught explicitly four times a week in fifteen-minute 'Building Blocks' sessions. Below are the curriculum progression documents detailing to content of these lessons:
