# Maths

**At UPS we value maths equally within the curriculum and want the children to enjoy learning about maths.**

**Our primary aim is to build a culture of fluency, deep understanding, confidence and competence, producing secure learning whilst fostering a love of maths.**

**We want our young people to become mathematicians so we have chosen to follow the White Rose Scheme of Work as it ensures curriculum coverage and promotes varied fluency. Children are to master their current learning with an emphasis on depth and challenge rather than accelerating through the content thus allowing children to reason and problem solve mathematically with confidence.**

**The policy below outlines how we achieve this.**
