NCETM Mastering Number Programme

Swansfield Park is one of the schools nationwide taking part in this exciting new project from the National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics (NCETM) and we are really enjoying it so far. The Mastering Number project aims to secure firm foundations in the development of good number sense for all children from Reception through to Year 1 and Year 2. The aim over time is that children will leave KS1 with fluency in calculation and a confidence and flexibility with number. 
 
We spend around 15 minutes each day (in addition to our usual Maths session) following the programme using a variety of resources to secure our good working number sense.
