Maths
Mathematics teaches children how to make sense of the world around them through developing their ability to calculate fluently, reason and solve problems. It enables children to understand relationships and patterns in both number and space in the world around them. Through their growing knowledge and understanding, children learn to appreciate the contribution made by many cultures to the development and application of mathematics. It is essential to everyday life, critical to science, technology and engineering, and necessary for financial literacy and most forms of employment.
