Emergency Episode: Curriculum & Assessment Review Special

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
