We are passionate about maths and ensuring that children not only get the right answers, but that they understand what they have done and why. We also believe in giving teachers the tools to support them in the classroom rather than a passive plug-in-and play approach which other schemes might lead to.
Carefully crafted single-age and mixed-age ESSENTIALMATHS learning sequences enable teachers to teach a carefully planned, small-step progression through the maths national curriculum from Reception to Year 6, deepening understanding year on year. The ESSENTIALMATHS suite of materials have been designed for use in single age and mixed age classrooms.
"Our teachers love the new ESSENTIALMATHS V2.0 planning and resources as they have significantly reduced our workload".
Emma Schumacher, KS2 Phase Leader and Year 5 Teacher, Kenilworth Primary School
We can help you explore how ESSENTIALMATHS can support effective maths teaching in your school.

We have recently started using the Rehearsal and Reasoning sheets and it’s a bit like finding the missing piece to the jigsaw. Planning is now working really effectively with these integrated in.

The clear sequencing and subject knowledge support look really useful. I love the links to cognitive science. The links between year groups are great to potentially support growing SEND needs.
