How they work

Each assessment grid is designed to align with the maths curriculum for the corresponding year group. Teachers can use them throughout the year to check off objectives as pupils demonstrate understanding. This approach ensures that all areas of maths are covered systematically, helping to track maths small steps for each year group across the year.

For Reception, the grids focus on early number skills, including counting, recognising numerals, and understanding number relationships. As pupils progress through Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, the grids cover a broad range of mathematical concepts, from addition and subtraction to fractions, decimals, and problem-solving.

Our Maths Assessment Grids are ideal for classroom teachers looking for an effective way to track progress and inform planning, subject leaders who need a clear overview of attainment across different year groups, teaching assistants and intervention staff who support pupils in targeted areas, and home educators and tutors who want a structured approach to tracking maths progress.
