1. Philosophy
Six underlying attributes at the heart of
Oak’s curriculum and lessons.

Lessons and units are knowledge and

vocabulary rich so that pupils build on what they
already know to develop powerful knowledge.

Knowledge is sequenced and mapped in a

coherent format so that pupils make meaningful
connections.

Our flexible curriculum enables schools to tailor

Oak’s content to their curriculum and context.

Our curriculum is evidence informed through

rigorous application of best practice and the
science of learning.

We prioritise creating a diverse curriculum by

committing to diversity in teaching and teachers,
and the language, texts and media we use, so all
pupils feel positively represented.

Creating an accessible curriculum that addresses

the needs of all pupils is achieved to accessibility
guidelines and requirements.

8. Prior knowledge requirements

1. Key stage 2 maths introduction

As mathematics teachers we want our pupils to reach fluency in what we are teaching them. In mathematics, fluency requires
a deep understanding of concepts and the ability to apply them flexibly and with automaticity. The mathematics curriculum
uses multiple representations to help make connections across concepts to help build a deep conceptual understanding. By
making consistent use of the same core representations we will scaffold pupils’ thinking to help them understand abstract
mathematical concepts. The curriculum will also include intelligent practice that is designed to help pupils develop
automaticity in their mathematics.

We also aim for our pupils to be able to use the precise language of mathematics, that is distinct from everyday language. The
curriculum will do this by explicitly teaching mathematical vocabulary and introducing core sentence structures with which to
communicate, express, connect, reason with and apply mathematical structures and ideas. Finally, we also aim for our pupils
to be able to think mathematically. The tasks and activities used in the curriculum teach pupils the components of
mathematical thinking: to sort and classify, compare and contrast, specialise and generalise, to make conjectures and to prove
them.

Below are the set of principles we have used to build this curriculum, with these ambitions for our pupils in mind:

2. Coherence and flexibility

We strive to support schools by offering a maths curriculum that can fit alongside a range of existing structures. However,
complete flexibility over unit ordering is impossible due to the cumulative nature of mathematics and the importance of prior
knowledge.

We have grouped lessons into units: coherent sequences of 5 or more lessons. Although each lesson can be accessed
individually, explicit connections are made to earlier lessons and later lessons in the same unit. This is because the
connections between mathematical concepts are so vital to deepening understanding.

3. Knowledge organisation

The units in the maths curriculum are grouped as appropriate for each key stage, with a suggested route organised within
year groups.

4. Knowledge selection

Our mathematics lessons cover the full scope of the National Curriculum. We have given more time (both in number of
lessons and number of units) to those concepts within the National Curriculum that the evidence tells us are foundational to
success in maths.
5. Inclusive and ambitious

We know the difference it makes when children believe they “can do” maths. We are guided by the principles of the National
Curriculum to ensure that every pupil, regardless of starting point, develops their fluency, reasoning and problem solving. Our
activities are scaffolded so all children can succeed. Children are offered frequent opportunities to be and feel successful as
pupils of maths.

We develop conceptual understanding by always building new understanding on what pupils already know, by representing
concepts in different ways, and by making connections between concepts. The mathematics curriculum makes consistent use
of the same core representations across year groups to help pupils connect prior learning to new learning. These
representations are selected to make key mathematical structures and ideas accessible to all pupils, no matter what their
starting points.

To support every child to communicate mathematically, pupils are introduced to core sentence structures with which to
express, connect, reason with and apply mathematical structures and ideas.

6. Pupil engagement

You learn maths by thinking about maths. Our lessons include mathematical tasks which have multiple solutions.
Mathematical thinking is woven into the units using scaffolds and prompts such as ‘what is the same and what’s different?’, ‘is
it sometimes, always or never true?’ and ‘which could be the odd one out?’. Throughout the curriculum, all pupils have
opportunities to sort and classify, compare and contrast, specialise and generalise, to make conjectures and to prove them.

7. Motivation through learning

We believe that mathematics is inherently interesting and that all children are entitled to a genuine experience of
mathematics. The tasks and activities that pupils engage with harness innate ways of thinking and develop the habits of mind
that are drawn upon when being mathematical. Problem solving is at the heart of every lesson with opportunities to
investigate, explore and reason.

8. Unit prior knowledge requirements

To develop deep conceptual understanding requires building on what has been previously understood. Constructing the
curriculum with this principle in mind results in careful sequencing within a topic, a year group and across key stages to create
a coherent progression for pupils. The curriculum plans here clearly indicate the prior knowledge required to help ensure this
coherence is maintained when units are used in a different sequencing of the curriculum plan. For example, before learning
about addition and subtraction within 10 in Year 1, pupils will need to have learned how to say, read and count numbers to 10.

The Department for Education has published a priority curriculum that identifies the most important elements of mathematics
and how to build progression in these from Y1 to Y6. These are identified in the curriculum map below so that teachers who
are choosing to prioritise the curriculum in order to support recovery from the impact of COVID-19 can identify the priority
areas.
