Maths in Year 5 is taught by Miss Jones. We follow the National Curriculum and below you will find a list of the topics we cover throughout the year. Every half term we test to assess the pupil's progress and homework is set twice a week. If you have any concerns regarding your child's progress in this subject, please do not hesitate to get in contact with Miss Jones.
