Maths
Our Maths Leader
At Gunter Primary School we want our children to be fluent in number alongside an ability to draw from a range of mental and written strategies to become competent mathematicians. Further opportunities to rehearse skills of problem solving, reasoning and creativity encourage our pupils to become independent, strategic thinkers. Pupils are expected to apply their mathematical knowledge through planned opportunities in Science and our wider Creative Curriculum.
Gunter’s approach is underpinned by the National Curriculum, where we want our children to understand how Mathematics is essential to everyday life, and how it interconnects with other subjects and the wider world. Our aim is to harness an enjoyment of the subject by allowing all pupils to experience success, regardless of their starting points. Key skills embedded through our school’s values are also fundamental to our mathematics curriculum; namely perseverance, resilience and determination. High aspirations are demonstrated by both staff and pupils.
