Maths

At Radford Academy we believe that all pupils can succeed and achieve in mathematics. We have adopted a whole school Teaching for Mastery approach, supported by Power Maths, to ensure that all pupils develop confidence, resilience and a depth of understanding that will underpin future learning.

The National Numeracy site has free support for families and their children:
