It's back. We have responded to feedback and decided to issue a new set of KS1 and KS2 problems in the run up to this year's SATs. We are grateful for all the feedback.
For the month of March, each day we will publish a daily question designed for use with your classes. Practice is crucial to maths success, and our questions are designed to support your daily routines. A new question will be posted each evening for the next day, and cover topics and areas that your pupils can expect to see as part of their SATs. If you tweet a picture of your classes hard at work solving a problem to @WRMathshub, you will be entered into our special weekly prize draw during March 2017! Please ensure that any photos you tweet have relevant permissions, as we will be retweeting a selection of these.
Thank you for your continued support.
Enjoy.
5 Topics to Revise for Key Stage 2 SATs
Since the White Rose Maths Hub began creating questions for Diagnostic Questions just a few months ago, there have been 337,221 answers given by primary school students all over the country. Perhaps more importantly, 116,437 of these answers have been incorrect.
So, with SATs on the horizon, we thought it would be a perfect time to reflect on five areas of mathematics that have proved particularly troubling to Key Stage 2 students. The five key areas are:
- Area and perimeter
- Angles
- Equivalent fractions and fractions of an amount
- Factors and multiples
- Percentages
For each of these areas we have provided some supporting resources that you could use with your classes to help overcome these difficulties, together with a mini 5 question quiz you could give your students to see if their misconceptions have been resolved.
We really hope you find this useful.

The White Rose Maths Hub have created a maths trail to be used at the fabulous Yorkshire Sculpture Park - 200 Year 4 children took part in the trail on June 20th and a great day was had by all.
Although designed for Y4 children, children of all ages can benefit from a visit to the park. Maybe even share with parents to use over the Summer holidays?
NB - Occasionally some of the Sculptures are changed at the YSP but we will try our best to keep this free trail up to date and accurate.
Enjoy!

We have created a calculation policy to help teachers introduce key concepts using a concrete-pictorial-abstract approach.
As always feedback is welcome.

We have created a few bonus problems for you to use this week with your KS2 classes. We hope they are useful. As always post your classes solutions on twitter tagging @whiterosemaths. We still have some prizes to give away.
Good luck!
It’s back! White Rose Maths Problem of the Day.
Along with the usual PDFs we have added a powerpoint that will be updated each day. The calendar is hyperlinked to take you straight to the new problems and answers are provided. Full worked solutions will be provided at the end of the month.
For the month of March, each day we will publish some reasoning and problem solving questions for use with your classes. Practice is crucial to maths success, and our questions are designed to support your daily routines. A new question will be posted each evening for the next day, and cover topics and areas that your pupils can expect to see as part of their SATs. If you tweet a picture of your classes hard at work solving a problem to @WRMaths, you will be entered into our special weekly prize draw during March 2018! Please ensure that any photos you tweet have relevant permissions, as we will be retweeting a selection of these.
Thank you for your continued support.

Thank you to everyone who are using our new schemes of learning. We are really pleased with the response and grateful for all the feedback.
Over the last few months we have been working hard on producing new assessments to align with the new schemes. We have listened to feedback from teachers and schools and tried to respond to what they were telling us.
The main change is that the assessments now cover related objectives from previous year groups material. So, for example our Y6 assessment does not just cover the Y6 objectives – which is what we had previously done. Instead it now covers content from other year groups too. We have done this after speaking to schools and leaders and we also recognise this reflects SATs assessments.
We hope these assessments are useful for you and your students. Writing assessments is always a difficult task but we have tried to write questions that will help you identify strengths that students have and areas that need additional work.
Please take a little time to read this document as it contains guidance on how to get the best out of the assessments.
As always, we would be delighted to receive feedback from you. We always look to improve the work we are doing and we appreciate whatever comments you may have.

Welcome to White Rose Maths’ new, more detailed schemes of learning for 2017-18.
We have listened to all the feedback over the last 2 years and as a result of this, we have made some changes to our primary schemes.
The new schemes still have the as the old ones, but we have tried to provide more detailed guidance. We have worked with enthusiastic and passionate teachers from up and down the country, who are experts in their particular year group, to bring you additional guidance.
Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the work of White Rose Maths. It is only with your help that we can make a difference.
We hope that you find the new schemes of learning helpful. If you have any feedback on any part of our work, do not hesitate to get in touch.
Follow us on Twitter and Facebook to keep up-to-date with all our latest announcements.

If you were to ask anyone in the White Rose Maths team what the most common request from teachers has been over the past few years, there is no doubt they would reply with the following question,
‘When are you releasing something for Reception?’
Drawing together a team of EYFS specialists and teachers, we are excited to release our brand new Reception Schemes which we hope will support Reception practitioners within their own settings.
Taking the end of year Early Learning Goals into account, we have created a progression to support teachers in building up the key small steps in learning throughout the year. When working with Reception teachers, our team found that teachers wanted clearer guidance in what they needed to cover within the year. Our progression helps support the coverage whilst still providing flexibility with how long you spend on different topics depending on your classes’ needs.
The progression is then broken down into small steps which give more detailed guidance on how to approach adult-led teaching of concepts, and how to enhance your provision areas to support teaching. Within the small steps, we have focused on key questions to support all adults within the setting to unpick children’s understanding and to enable them to move forward with their learning. The suggestions for learning could be used for short adult-led inputs or group activities with the children.
We hope you find the guidance useful #MathsEveryoneCan
