Singapore Maths

Singapore Maths is a scheme of teaching key stage 1 and key stage 2 maths that has been adapted by teachers across the UK, and has been endorsed by both the Department of Education and OFSTED.

Singapore is consistently at the top of International Ranking Charts for the ability of their students in maths. Other countries have subsequently adapted the teaching techniques to allow them to catch-up in the rankings. This method of teaching allows students to achieve mastery within mathematics. Mathematical concepts are introduced at a slower rate than alternative methods, to allow a full depth of understanding before other topics are introduced. This allows individuals to gain in confidence and allow them to enjoy and flourish with mathematics.

One main concept of Singapore Maths in both key Stage 1 and key Stage 2 is the use of the Bar Model.  Beginning with concrete objects and being heavily pictorial in the first instance the scheme develops to include more abstract concepts.
