Aims

This year everyone at Leamington is working towards the Liverpool Counts Quality Mark. This is an exciting project to promote positive attitudes to maths not just in our school but as an essential life skill. We will be focusing on new and exciting ways to help encourage children to make links and use maths in their everyday lives.

The aims of the project are:

To raise standards in mathematics and numeracy with fun and joy of number at the heart of all aspects of the strategy
To challenge perceptions and change attitudes towards number and mathematics
To raise the profile of numeracy through a range of activities, events and resources with an emphasis on the application to real life contexts
To bring relevance to numeracy through problem solving set in local contexts
To enhance the delivery of the new national curriculum at all key stages and the early years foundation stage
To secure a shared understanding between the phases of education with an agreed common mathematical language and transition projects
To promote the use of technology to engage learners
To involve parents and the local business and cultural communities
To creating a sustainable legacy of a love of numbers
