Designed to help students starting their GCSEs – either for the first time or as a resit – the tests are accessible for all and adapt to students’ knowledge, delivering the right amount of challenge.\u003Cbr>Our new maths tests will allow teachers to pinpoint gaps in their students’ conceptual knowledge-saving them time and empowering students, who will understand how to improve. They’re fully funded for schools and colleges, easy to use for teachers and engaging for students.\u003Cbr>The five short tests, created with the Key Stage 1 and 2 and Key Stage 3 guidance in mind, focus on key areas of maths that experts have identified as the most impactful for GCSE success. They come with personalised learning and next steps to allow students to develop in both knowledge and confidence.\u003Cbr>Rationale\u003Cbr>We know that maths is a hierarchical subject, with knowledge being built upon foundational maths which underpins the new concept. We have analysed data from hundreds of thousands of exam questions and found that even though content is first encountered in the early stages of a learner’s schooling, a significant proportion of learners answer questions on the foundations of maths incorrectly.\u003Cbr>With this in mind, we want to empower teachers to take control of their classrooms and provide a nurturing environment in which gaps within key prerequisite understanding are identified and corrective instruction is deployed, filling the gaps and ensuring that more complex content can be taught, safe in the knowledge that learners have the underlying knowledge required to be successful in their lessons, and thrive in the GCSE examinations.\u003Cbr>Key features\u003Cbr>The Concept Map on the following page shows that N1 Place Value is a key prerequisite in developing expertise and knowledge within Numbers, fundamental to success with rounding and estimation, equivalence between fractions, decimals and percentages, and multiplication and division by powers of ten.\u003Cbr>It's also clear that N10 Factors and N11 Multiples are key to understanding many other areas of the mathematics curriculum, including prime factors and prime factor decomposition, equivalence and simplificati","cbCaijmE7DzPq2ZX","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijmE7DzPq2ZX","pdf",1282464,32,"English","# Overview\n## Rationale\n## Key features\n# Concept Map\n## N1 Place value\n## N2 Whole number bonds: addition/subtraction","[{\"question\":\"What is STRIDE designed to achieve for maths learners?\",\"answer\":\"STRIDE is designed to empower students and help teachers quickly identify and close knowledge gaps in mathematics, supporting learners starting GCSEs or resits.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the guide explain the rationale for focusing on foundational knowledge?\",\"answer\":\"It describes maths as hierarchical, showing that even when foundational content is first encountered early in schooling, many learners answer questions on those foundations incorrectly, so gaps must be identified and corrected.\"},{\"question\":\"What key areas within Numbers are included in the concept map?\",\"answer\":\"The concept map highlights prerequisites such as place value, factors and multiples, prime numbers and prime factor decomposition, equivalence and simplification of fractions, and square and cube numbers, along with subsequent rounding, sequences, and conversions.\"}]","STRIDE INTO THE FUTURE OF ASSESSMENT - Teacher Companion Guide - Numbers | PDF",1792467317,81]
