Red Rose Mastery Maths is a comprehensive scheme offering full coverage of the National Curriculum and Early Years Framework from EYFS to Year 6. Built on the Five Big Ideas of Teaching for Mastery, the core ethos of the scheme is to develop children's mathematical understanding through carefully crafted modelling and questioning and children actively thinking and learning.

Red Rose Mastery Maths uses a spiral curriculum approach which reduces cognitive load, supports retention and enables children to make connections across the different strands of mathematics. Objectives are broken down into smaller steps of progression and revisited and built on throughout the year.

In Reception, the scheme includes:

- key skills practice opportunities
- detailed daily adult led session notes
- weekly continuous provision enhancements
- numeral formation illustrations and phrases
- content to ensure children are KS1 ready

In Years 1 to 6, the scheme includes:

- a detailed lesson plan with inbuilt subject knowledge and opportunities for scaffold and extension to support adaptive teaching
- an interactive teaching tool to put the teacher in control of the modelling
- reasoning and problem solving integrated into every lesson
- children’s task sheets which include variation (can be purchased as printed workbooks)
- deeper learning task to extend children working at greater depth
- starter task built in to support retention and develop mathematical fluency
- half termly learning checks and end of term arithmetic and reasoning assessments which mirror the style of the end of key stage tests
