The Year 1 maths curriculum is where learners will begin their Key Stage 1 journey. This year is all about learning the basics across six different fundamental areas of maths.
The skills they’ll begin to learn in Year 1 will prepare them for all that’s to come as they move through their primary school education and beyond!
Maths for Year 1 consists of six key areas and will help learners get to grips with the foundational skills they’ll need in each. Let’s break these down below.

There are no maths assessments in Year 1. In place of formal assessments, teachers will monitor their student’s progress throughout the year using a range of informal assessment strategies.
A great way to give your child some Year 1 maths help is to give them lots of practice at the different skills they’re learning. Our fantastic maths app has thousands of fun and interactive curricular-aligned games that your little learner is sure to love.
