In this special emergency episode of The Primary Maths Podcast, Jon is joined by Becky, Sally and first-time guest Lisa to unpack the government’s newly released Curriculum and Assessment Review – and the official response that landed alongside it.
Together, they explore:
- Why the review was commissioned and what it aims to achieve
- The key takeaways for primary maths – from number fluency and multiplicative reasoning to problem solving
- What might move from Key Stage 2 to 3 (and why)
- Changes to assessment, including the MTC, KS1 and KS2 SATs
- The growing role of financial education and citizenship in primary schools
- Whether this review represents evolution or revolution for the curriculum
