Subject Coordinator - Mrs L Brown

I am delighted to be the Maths Coordinator at Mablethorpe Primary Academy.

My mission is to ignite a passion for Maths by connecting it with various subjects across our curriculum, including cookery, design and technology, Computing and many more. Together we will explore and demonstrate how maths is used every day in different careers, offering plenty of hands-on experiences for everyone. 

Maths is a journey, and pupils can be at different stages along this path. However, at MPA it is our aim to ensure that all pupils achieve their full potential in Mathematics. With the use of manipulatives, we aim to enhance understanding of mathematical concepts across all key stages. 

Using Power Maths scheme and TT Rock Stars we embark on this exciting journey towards making Maths engaging, enjoyable, and enriching for all our students! Let's nurture a positive growth mindset towards Maths together. 

Please see the overviews below for what your child will be learning and when. If you need any help, please do not hesitate to ask. Over the year we will be running maths drop ins and workshops for parents, please see our face book page for details. We look forward to seeing you.

Maths: 

At Mablethorpe Primary Academy, we believe that every child can be successful in mathematics. Our maths curriculum is designed to help children develop confidence, resilience and a love of learning, regardless of their starting point. We understand that some pupils face barriers to learning, so we provide the support, challenge and encouragement needed for all children to achieve their potential. Through Power Maths, Mastering Number and practical resources, pupils develop fluency, reasoning and problem-solving skills while building a deep understanding of mathematical concepts. We encourage children to explain their thinking, learn from mistakes and approach challenges with a positive attitude. Maths is taught through engaging, real-life experiences so that pupils understand how mathematics helps them in everyday life. By linking learning to future opportunities and careers, we inspire children to be aspirational and ambitious. Through our values of Honesty, Aspiration, Resilience, Respect and Positivity, we prepare pupils for success in education, employment and later life.
