White Rose Mathematics

At Rise Park Academies, we implement the White Rose Maths scheme across all year groups, ensuring a consistent and structured approach to teaching mathematics. The White Rose scheme provides a clear, progressive framework that aligns with the National Curriculum and supports our teachers in delivering high-quality lessons.

• Curriculum Delivery: Lessons are planned using the White Rose Maths schemes of learning, which break down mathematical concepts into small, manageable steps. This approach helps pupils build on their existing knowledge and progressively develop their understanding.

• Lesson Structure: Each lesson follows a consistent structure that includes a clear learning objective, a ‘Teach and Do’ phase, guided practice, and independent tasks. This ensures that pupils receive direct instruction, ample practice, and opportunities for consolidation.

• Assessment for Learning: Regular formative assessments are embedded within the White Rose scheme to gauge pupils' understanding and inform next steps. This allows for timely interventions and targeted support where needed.

• Differentiation and Support: We adapt teaching to meet the needs of all learners through differentiated tasks and support mechanisms. The White Rose scheme offers resources and activities that cater to varying abilities, ensuring that all pupils are appropriately challenged.

• Professional Development: We invest in ongoing professional development for our staff to ensure they are confident and skilled in delivering the White Rose Maths curriculum effectively. This includes regular training sessions and collaborative planning opportunities.
