Each year we have a Maths Day in school. It is a great opportunity for the older pupils to lead lots of fun Maths activities for other classes. 

It is the intention for Maths education at Chesnut Lodge to enable pupils to develop and apply functional Maths to the best of their individual ability.

Staff at Chesnut Lodge have high expectations of their pupils in Maths. Pupils will all continue to make steps of progress at their own level and pace. The curriculum meets the varied needs of the learners following three pathways. They will work towards their potential through quality teaching, repetition and a range of learning experiences at the appropriate level.

The curriculum is that pupils develop a positive attitude and find Maths enjoyable. Pupils at Chesnut Lodge are not afraid to learn from their mistakes. They are proud of their learning and achievements.

Maths will be functional and will be applied to the real world. Encouraging pupils to understand how important Maths is in everyday life. Pupils apply the Maths skills they gain across the curriculum and solve everyday Maths problems.

Where appropriate pupils will have access to accreditation.

Maths is taught in a practical way with lots of different resources used.
