Learning progresses through sequenced topics that continuously reinforce prior skills, supporting conceptual understanding and rapid recall. Pupils also develop mathematical reasoning via enquiry, conjecture and argument. Regular assessment, individualised feedback, and structured time to address misconceptions ensure pupils can apply strategies to routine and non-routine problems.","Maths Department Curriculum Overview  \nMaths students at Bentley Wood will become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, through varied and frequent practice with increasingly complex problems over time, so that pupils develop conceptual understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately.  \nThis can be seen through:  \n• An ambitious and accessible scheme of learning (SoL) that enables progress for all students.  \n• A SoL that develops fluency, reasoning and problem solving through deliberate practice, interleaving and regular low-stakes testing.  \n• A sequenced curriculum with interleaved topics to allow continuous recall.  \n• Each stage of the curriculum builds on prior skills and knowledge allowing a smooth transition to the next stage  \nMaths students at Bentley Wood will be able to reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing relationships and generalisations, and developing an argument, justification or proof using mathematical language. The ideal aim is for pupils to attain proficiency, not just collective moments of understanding, familiarity or experience. This will help pupils to develop motivation in the subject.  \nThis can be seen though:  \n• Well-chosen examples, questions that link across strands of topics that involve several steps of problem solving  \n• Use of correct and accurate language is promoted throughout the SoL and resources used.  \n• Useful facts and efficient and accurate methods are paired within a topic sequence.  \n• Strategies for solving problem types are taught and learned once pupils can recall and deploy facts and methods with speed and accuracy.  \n• Teachers balance introducing new content with pupils’ need to spend time revisiting content.  \nMaths students at Bentley Wood will be able to solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of routine and non-routine problems with increasing sophistication, including breaking down problems into a series of simpler steps and persevering in seeking solutions.  \nThis can be seen though:  \n• Regular assessment of the strands of fluency, reasoning and problem solving which are clearly seen in the assessments.  \n• Students receiving regular and individualised feedback which enables them to understand how to move forward.  \n• Built in time in our SoL for students to reflect and work on misconceptions and errors identified through their assessments.  \nMaths students at Bentley Wood are offered a variety of opportunities and experiences that widen their appreciation of mathematics and the world around them.  \n\n| Autumn 1 Autumn 2 Spring 1 Spring 2 Summer 1 Summer 2 |  |  |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Year 7 | Identify different types of number and work with multiples, factors and primes.\u003Cbr>Calculate with negative numbers.\u003Cbr>Use written methods of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.\u003Cbr>To understand the order of operations and use a calculator effectively.
