What grammar school Maths preparation covers
Selective school Maths often rewards pupils who can apply core KS2 knowledge flexibly. That means more than memorising methods; pupils need to understand the question, choose the right approach and check whether the answer is reasonable.
Coach Dean Tutoring supports arithmetic fluency, fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio, measures, geometry, data handling and multi-step problem solving.
- Arithmetic fluency
- Fractions and decimals
- Percentages and ratio
- Measures and time
- Geometry
- Data handling
- Multi-step word problems
Timed Maths practice
Timed practice is introduced after pupils understand the topic. The aim is to build accuracy first, then speed, then calm performance in mixed questions.
Mistakes become correction work so the pupil learns why a method failed and what to do differently next time.
