Early Mathematics in the EYFS

Strong early maths is one of the best predictors of later achievement, yet many practitioners feel less confident teaching it. This course builds your confidence and shows how rich mathematical learning happens through play, routines and quality interactions.

What you’ll learn

  • What the EYFS requires for mathematics
  • Number sense: counting principles, subitising and cardinality
  • Shape, space, measure and pattern in the early years
  • Maths through play, daily routines and the environment
  • Mathematical talk and quality adult interactions
  • Assessing and extending children’s mathematical thinking

On completion learners receive an NFAQ-accredited certificate as evidence for compliance and Ofsted.
