Success@Arithmetic is a light touch calculation-based intervention for learners, in Key Stages 2 and 3, who have difficulties with arithmetic proficiency and need support to improve their understanding of number and written calculation skills. It helps them to make faster progress and to catch up with their peers through a mastery approach. 

The programme involves training a lead teacher and one (or two) teaching assistants together. The lead teacher and TA together conduct a diagnostic assessment and selects a series of Success@Arithmetic steps to form a tailored programme of up to 24 sessions, adapted from detailed plans that the teaching assistant delivers to an intervention group of up to three pupils. The sessions use number rods, bar modelling and written methods to build a complete mathematical picture, developing pupils’ arithmetical fluency. The teaching assistant starts working with their group of pupils straight after the first training day. Then the training runs alongside the implementation of the teaching programme, in that way the Teaching Assistant is trained topic by topic.

Please note that schools and participators must be able to commit to the full programme.  All dates are identified before the start of the programme and we ask that these are protected and any issues communicated before the first session. If a participant does not turn up for a session it will be assumed that they have withdrawn from the programme, unless there has been advance notification.   Participants should also be supported by their school leadership to explore outcomes from the project with other colleagues in their school.
