New assessment procedures in Maths

What we are doing about Maths homework.

What are we doing in this session?

Addition and Subtraction – objectives for the year add and subtract whole numbers with more than 4

digits, including using formal written methods (columnar addition and subtraction)

add and subtract numbers mentally with increasingly large numbers

use rounding to check answers to calculations and determine, in the context of a problem, levels of accuracy

solve addition and subtraction multi-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why.

How you can help your child..

add and subtract whole numbers with more than 4 digits, including using formal written methods (columnar addition and subtraction)



Ensure that children use the language of place value to support understanding and ensure that the decimal points line up.


solve addition and subtraction multi-step problems in contexts, deciding which operations and methods to use and why.


Lord Sugar is saving up to buy a new aeroplane. In total, it will cost him £1,750,234.45. He has £305,210 in his bank account, he gets £812,245.16 for his birthday and he gets paid £350,000 for a series of The Apprentice. How much more money does he need?

Multiplication and division- objectives for the year

multiply numbers up to 4 digits by a one or two digit number using a formal written method, including long multiplication for two digit numbers

multiply and divide numbers mentally drawing upon known facts

divide numbers up to 4 digits by a one digit number using the formal written method of short division and interpret remainders appropriately for the context


multiply numbers up to 4 digits by a one or two digit number using a formal written method, including long multiplication for two digit numbers


divide numbers up to 4 digits by a one digit number using the formal written method of short division and interpret remainders appropriately for the context


This is the children putting their Maths knowledge into action

Using and applying involves pupils in solving problems, explaining their methods and results, and using their Mathematics, particularly to reason (mainly through questions)

Using and applying is used in all aspects of the Maths curriculum

It is where pupils use their knowledge and understanding of mathematics to solve problems.

Using and Applying

Let’s have a go at some Using and Applying so you can put into practice what you have learnt here

Puzzles and Problems – Joins, Presents.

Questioning by the teacher

Using and Applying

Reasons behind the removal of levels: ◦Level driven curriculum ◦Used to much◦Negative impact on teaching

Problems with levels ◦Are they fair? ◦Impact on teaching and learning ◦Not regular enough

Benefits of assessment without levels ◦Clarity for pupil and parents ◦Support for pupils

New assessment - Life without Levels

Purpose of day to day assessment for parents: ◦Broad picture of where their child’s strengths and

weaknesses lie and what they need to improve ◦Collins objectives◦Teachers will assess every objective ◦Informs about the achievement, progress and

wider outcomes of their child across a period of time, not just a one day SNAPSHOT!

You will now ONLY receive narrative comments and an effort grade in the report

How we will report

We have recognised at times Sumdog can be quite difficult for pupils

Feedback from parents and teachers Element of challenge Who to contact if you are unhappy with homework
