Fluent Mathematicians,
Confident Schools

Mathematics is the subject everyone has an opinion about, and the one where a scheme of work is most often mistaken for a curriculum. A list of topics in an order is not a sequence — a sequence records what has to be secure before the next thing can be taught.

This booklet is written for the whole department at once. A head of maths can read it as a curriculum and quality-assurance document; a teacher can open it at the page they need on a Friday afternoon. The specifications were read from the current documents rather than from summaries, and where the boards differ the difference is stated rather than blended.
