Abacus always covers the content of the National Curriculum within the paired age range (i.e. Y1/2, Y3/4, 5/6). Very occasionally Abacus postpones something from the first year of a
range e.g. Year 3 and teaches it in Year 4. This is to ensure a rigorous progression in terms of children's acquisition of mathematical skills. Less occasionally Abacus teaches something
from the second year of an age range in the first year. This is to ensure that the building blocks are in place for more challenging topics and to allow critical and challenging skills to be
consolidated and revisited.
