Maths mastery
What is 'Maths Mastery'?
Inspired by teaching approaches developed in Singapore and Shanghai, mastery is an inclusive way of teaching that is grounded in the belief that all pupils can achieve in Maths. A concept is deemed mastered when learners can represent it in multiple ways, can communicate solutions using mathematical language and can independently apply the concept to new problems. For example, at Lavenham, we aim to teach children with concrete, pictorial and written/abstract examples of mathematical strategies.
Teaching for mastery supports National Curriculum objectives, through a clearly mapped learning trajectory in small steps to support the mathematical journey for all pupils in our school.

This is the journey of maths your child will take throughout their time at our school.
