Mastering Number at KS2

What's involved?
Knowledge of multiplication and division and its applications forms the single most important aspect of the KS2 curriculum, and is the gateway to success at secondary school.  This project enables pupils in Years 4 and 5 to develop fluency in multiplication and division facts, and a confidence and flexibility with number that exemplifies good number sence.

Teaching materials will be provided to cover five short sessions a week, with participants expected to support colleagues in their year groups to use the resources with all Year 4 and 5 classes.

​​Who can take part?
This project is for schools that are involved in Mastering Number at Reception and KS1, and are also in a TfM (Teaching for Mastery) Sustaining Work Group.  Lead participants from Work Group schools will be two teachers - one from each Year 4 and Year 5.  Support will also be given to Maths Leads and Headteachers.
