    • Year 5 Maths Key Performance Indicators

    • Read, write, order and compare numbers to at least 1,000,000 and determine the value of each digit
    • Interpret negative numbers in context
    • Count forwards and backwards with positive and negative whole numbers, including through zero
    • Round any number up to 1,000,000 to the nearest 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000 and 100,000
    • Add whole numbers with more than 4 digits, including using formal written methods (columnar addition)
    • Subtract whole numbers with more than 4 digits, including using formal written methods (columnar subtraction)
    • Add and subtract numbers mentally with increasingly large numbers
    • Identify multiples and fractions, including finding all factors pairs of a number, and common factors of two numbers
    • Multiply numbers up to 4 digits by a one or two-digit number using a formal written method, including long multiplication for two-digit numbers
    • Divide numbers up to 4 digits by a one-digit number using a formal written method of short division and interpret remainders appropriately for the context
    • Multiply and divide whole numbers and those involving decimals by 10, 100 and 1,000
    • Solve problems involving multiplication and division including using their knowledge of factors and multiples, squares and cubes
    • Solve problems involving multiplication and division including scaling by simple fractions and problems involving simple rates
    • Compare and order fractions where denominators are all multiples of the same number
    • Add and subtract fractions with the same denominator and denominators that are multiples of the same number
    • Multiply proper fractions and mixed number by whole numbers, supported by materials and diagrams
    • Read and write decimal numbers as fractions (e.g. 0.71 = 71/100)
    • Round decimals with two decimal places to the nearest whole number and to one decimal place
    • Read, write, order and compare numbers with up to 3 decimal places
    • Recognise the % symbol and understand that per cent relates to ‘no of parts per 100’ and write percentages as a fraction with denominator 100 and as a decimal
    • Solves problems which require knowing percentage and decimal equivalents of 1/2, 1/4, 1/5, 2/5, 4/5 and those with a denominator of a multiple of 10 or 25
    • Convert between different units of metric measures (for example, kilometre and metre; centimetre and metre; centimetre and millimetre; gram and kilogram; litre and millilitre)
    • Measure and calculate the perimeter of composite rectilinear shapes in centimetres and metres
    • Calculate and compare the area of rectangles (including squares) and including using standard units, square centimetres (cm2) and square metres (m2) and estimate the area of irregular shapes
    • Use all four operations to solve problems involving measure (for example length, mass, volume, money) using decimal notation, including scaling
    • Draw given angles, and measure them in degrees (o)
    • Distinguish between regular and irregular polygons based on reasoning about equal sides and angles
    • Complete, read and interpret information in tables, including timetables
