KEY STAGE 1 |
|||||
Children in Years 1 and 2 will be given a really solid foundation in the basic building blocks of mental and written arithmetic. Through being taught place value, children will develop an understanding of how numbers work, so that they are confident with 2-digit numbers and beginning to read and say numbers above 100. | |||||
Addition and Subtraction: A focus on number bonds, first via practical hands-on experiences and subsequently using memorisation techniques, enables a good grounding in these crucial facts, and ensures that all children leave Year 2 knowing the pairs of numbers which make all the numbers up to 10 at least. Children will also have experienced and been taught pairs to 20. Children’s knowledge of number facts enables them to add several 1-digit numbers, and to add/subtract a 1-digit number to/from a 2-digit number. Another important conceptual tool is the ability to add/subtract 1 or 10, and to understand which digit changes and why. This understanding is extended to enable children to add and subtract multiples of 10 to and from any 2-digit number. The most important application of this knowledge is the ability to add or subtract any pair of 2-digit numbers by counting on or back in 10s and 1s. Children may extend this to adding by partitioning numbers into 10s and 1s. | Multiplication and Division: Children will be taught to count in 2s, 3s, 5s and 10s, and will relate this skill to repeated addition. Children will meet and begin to learn the associated ×2, ×3, ×5 and ×10 tables. Engaging in a practical way with the concept of repeated addition and the use of arrays enables children to develop a preliminary understanding of multiplication, and asking them to consider how many groups of a given number make a total will introduce them to the idea of division. Children will also be taught to double and halve numbers, and will thus experience scaling up or down as a further aspect of multiplication and division. | Fractions: Fractions will be introduced as numbers and as operators, specifically in relation to halves, quarters and thirds. | |||

LOWER KEY STAGE 2 |
|||||
In Lower Key Stage 2, children build on the concrete and conceptual understandings they have gained in Key Stage 1 to develop a real mathematical understanding of the four operations, in particular developing arithmetical competence in relation to larger numbers. | |||||
Addition and subtraction: Children are taught to use place value and number facts to add and subtract numbers mentally and they will develop a range of strategies to enable them to discard the ‘counting in 1s’ or fingers-based methods of Key Stage 1. In particular, children will learn to add and subtract multiples and near multiples of 10, 100 and 1000, and will become fluent in complementary addition as an accurate means of achieving fast and accurate answers to 3-digit subtractions. Standard written methods for adding larger numbers are taught, learned and consolidated, and written column subtraction is also introduced. | Multiplication and division:This key stage is also the period during which all the multiplication and division facts are thoroughly memorised, including all facts up to 12 × 12. Efficient written methods for multiplying or dividing a 2-digit or 3-digit number by a 1-digit number are taught, as are mental strategies for multiplication or division with large but ‘friendly’ numbers, e.g. when dividing by 5 or multiplying by 20. | Fractions and decimals: Children will develop their understanding of fractions, learning to reduce a fraction to its simplest form, as well as finding non-unit fractions of amounts and quantities. The concept of a decimal number is introduced and children consolidate a firm understanding of 1-place decimals, multiplying and dividing whole numbers by 10 and 100. | |||

UPPER KEY STAGE 2 |
|||||
Children move on from dealing mainly with whole numbers to performing arithmetic operations with both decimals and fractions. | |||||
Addition and subtraction: Children will consolidate their use of written procedures in adding and subtracting whole numbers with up to 6 digits and also decimal numbers with up to 2 decimal places. Mental strategies for adding and subtracting increasingly large numbers will also be taught. These will draw upon children’s robust understanding of place value and knowledge of number facts. Negative numbers will be added and subtracted. | Multiplication and division: Efficient and flexible strategies for mental multiplication and division are taught and practised, so that children can perform appropriate calculations even when the numbers are large, such as 40000 × 6 or 40 000 ÷ 8. In addition, it is in Years 5 and 6 that children extend their knowledge and confidence in using written algorithms for multiplication and division. | Fractions, decimals, percentages and ratio:Fractions and decimals are also added, subtracted, divided and multiplied, within the bounds of children’s understanding of these more complicated numbers.

Know by heart all the multiplication facts up to 12 × 12Multiply whole numbers and decimals with up to 3 places by 10, 100 or 1000e.g. 234 × 1000 = 234 000 e.g. 0·23 × 1000 = 230Identify common factors, common multiples and prime numbers and use factors in mental multiplication e.g. 326 × 6 is 652 × 3 which is 1956 Use place value and number facts in mental multiplication e.g. 4000 × 6 = 24 000 Use doubling and halving as mental multiplication strategies, including to multiply by 2, 4, 8, 5, 20, 50 and 25 e.g. 28 × 25 is a quarter of 28 × 100 = 700 Use rounding in mental multiplication e.g. 34 × 19 as (34 × 20) – 34 Multiply 1- and 2-place decimals by numbers up to and including 10 using place value and partitioning e.g. 3·6 × 4 is 12 + 2·4 e.g. 2·53 × 3 is 6 + 1·5 + 0·09 Double decimal numbers with up to 2 places using partitioning e.g. 36·73 doubled is double 36 (72) plus double 0·73 (1·46) |
Use short multiplication to multiply a 1-digit number by a number with up to 4 digits
Use long multiplication to multiply a 2-digit number by a number with up to 4 digits Use short multiplication to multiply a 1-digit number by a number with 1 or 2 decimal places, including amounts of money Multiply fractions and mixed numbers by whole numbers Multiply fractions by proper fractions Use percentages for comparison and calculate simple percentages |
Know by heart all the multiplication facts up to 12 × 12Multiply whole numbers and 1- and 2-place decimals by 10, 100 and 1000Use an efficient written method to multiply a1-digit or a teen number by a number with up to 4 digits by partitioning (grid method)Multiply a 1-place decimal number up to 10 by a number ≤ 100 using the grid method |

Know by heart all the division facts up to 144 ÷ 12Divide whole numbers by powers of 10 to give whole number answers or answers with up to3 decimal placesIdentify common factors, common multiples and primes numbers and use factors in mental divisione.g. 438 ÷ 6 is 219 ÷ 3 which is 73 Use tests for divisibility to aid mental calculation Use doubling and halving as mental division strategies, for example to divide by 2, 4, 8, 5, 20 and 25 e.g. 628 ÷ 8 is halved three times: Divide 1- and 2-place decimals by numbers up to and including 10 using place value e.g. 2·4 ÷ 6 = 0·4 e.g. 0·65 ÷ 5 = 0·13 e.g. £6·33 ÷ 3 = £2·11 Halve decimal numbers with up to 2 places using partitioning e.g. Half of 36·86 is half of 36 (18) plus half of 0·86 (0·43) Know and use equivalence between simple fractions, decimals and percentages, including in different contexts Recognise a given ratio and reduce a given ratio to its lowest terms |
Use short division to divide a number with up to 4 digits by a 1-digit or a 2-digit numberUse long division to divide 3-digit and 4-digit numbers by ‘friendly’ 2-digit numbersGive remainders as whole numbers or as fractions or as decimalsDivide a 1-place or a 2-place decimal number by a number ≤ 12 using multiples of the divisorsDivide proper fractions by whole numbers |
Know by heart all the division facts up to 144 ÷ 12Divide whole numbers by 10, 100, 1000 to give whole number answers or answers with up to 2 decimal placesUse an efficient written method, involving subtracting powers of 10 times the divisor, to divide any number of up to 1000 by a number ≤ 12e.g. 836 ÷ 11 as 836 – 770 (70 × 11) leaving 66 which is 6 × 11, giving the answer 76Divide a 1-place decimal by a number ≤ 10 using place value and knowledge of division facts |
