Mixed-age mastery in Early Years and Key Stage 1 One small rural coastal primary shares a practical approach to mixed-age maths using flexible teaching and continuous provision

Discover how one school has changed its approach to teaching maths in mixed-age classes - and the positive impact on pupils.
