The Mathematics curriculum is for children from junior infants to sixth class. The curriculum identifies

• mathematical skills to be developed
• content for children’s learning:
  • Number
  • Algebra
  • Shape and space
  • Measures
  • Data. 

Discussion, hands-on experience with materials, and active learning are encouraged as well as the development of mathematical language to share ideas and thinking. 

A new primary mathematics curriculum is currently in development and will be published as a single specification from junior infants to 6th class in late 2021.
