School Policies cover every aspect of school life. Below are some of our most important policies for your reference. If you want to know our policy on something that is not listed, please ask the school office. Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic First School complies with the ‘Public Sector Equality Duty’ and ‘The Equality Act 2010’ and has a published equality objective as part of its Accessibility Plan.

Maths Calculation Policies

Please find below our school calculation policy for each of the four operations. Each policy covers both the mental and written strategies taught in each year group. Whilst the documents show the strategies used across all year groups to enable you to see how children will progress, please focus on the strategies used in your child’s current year group (and where appropriate, the previous year group). The calculation policy has been designed to develop children’s conceptual understanding of each operation and as such we ask that children are not taught strategies which are used by children further up the school.
