Liverpool Counts Quality Mark

As a result we aim to :

• Create a positive ethos and a ‘can-do’ ethos about Mathematics across the school
• ensure that all our children are given the opportunity to develop their basic numeracy skills
• Share and celebrate an enjoyment of Mathematics
• Raise the profile of Mathematics across the school including it’s use in other subjects
• enable our pupils to have the knowledge and confidence to use and apply these skills in many different real-life situations and within other subjects
• Support adults in our school community to encourage the children to make connections in their Mathematics lessons to real-life contexts and with other areas of the curriculum
• Understand the importance of Mathematics as a life skill and the role it plays in future life choices

We need your help to challenge these views and promote a culture where we understand the need for good numeracy skills and mathematics qualifications. We want to ensure our children know how important these are for their social, financial, health and employment aspects, both now and in the future.

In school, we will all be working hard to encourage pupils to make connections in their Maths lessons to real-life contexts and within other areas of their school experiences.

Watch this space to see the activities we will be taking part in! We are hoping parents, carers and the wider community will join us and get involved!
