Maths
At Ormesby Primary School, we believe that every child can succeed and thrive in mathematics. Our curriculum is carefully designed to develop deep mathematical understanding, confidence and a lifelong positive attitude towards maths.
We provide a structured, progressive curriculum that develops a strong number sense and builds fluency, reasoning and problem-solving skills. Our approach encourages children to think mathematically, explain their reasoning and make connections between different concepts. Through high-quality teaching, practical resources and carefully planned learning sequences, pupils develop both competence and confidence as mathematicians.
We are also proud to be participating in the National Numeracy Schools and Families Programme, which extends our commitment to maths beyond the classroom. This initiative supports both children and adults in developing confidence with everyday maths, helping families recognise the importance of numeracy in daily life. By working together with parents and carers, we aim to reduce maths anxiety, build positive attitudes and empower everyone in our school community to use maths with confidence and fulfil their potential throughout their lives.

Numbots
Numbots what is it?

How can you support your child?
You can access Numbots either by downloading the app or by visiting the Numbot website. Each child has their own unique log in. It is the same log in information that they use for TTRS. If you do not have your child’s log on details, please speak to their teacher. Your child may need some support when logging into Numbots, but then your child will be able to enjoy the interactive website independently.
