The Mathematics Curriculum, launched in 2014, has meant a rejigging of some expectations and content. The Mathematics curriculum will organised along four different themes and the children will work progressively through these.

The Staff at Uplowman Primary School are committed to ensuring that all pupils are 'stretched and challenged' academically. We are all aware of the research showing disadvantaged pupils often fall behind their peers, achieving lower grades throughout their education. This is known as an 'attainment gap' and the purpose of the Pupil Premium (PP) is to 'narrow the gap'.
