They learn how to count, to do addition, subtraction and number patterns. They develop a range of mental calculation skills and use these confidently in different settings. They begin to understand mathematical language, using methods and explain their reasoning when solving problems.

Our English lesson covers

For English, our program ensures that work in ‘speaking and listening’, ‘reading’ and ‘writing’ is integrated. We teach pupils learn to speak confidently and listen to what others have to say. They begin to read and write independently and with enthusiasm. They use language to explore their own experiences and imagination.
