Good evening everyone! We hope you're having an amazing, well-deserved summer break! 

The DU team have been busy behind the scenes creating our brand new maths scheme of work. We can't wait to get the first of our new steps published for you.

We know you'll be THRILLED to hear that we are almost there with our first place value steps. The team have worked SO hard to create these and we can't wait to hear what you think of them!

Here at DU, we have a very thorough checking system to ensure our resources are of the highest quality when they reach our subscribers. Unfortunately, due to unavoidable staff absences, we have been unable to complete these checks in the timeframe we had hoped. However, we are really pleased to report that we will be in a position to begin publishing some of our first resources towards the end of this week! 

We'll send out another email and share updates on our social media channels to confirm when they're available so stay posted to be one of the first to check these out! 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your ongoing support. It has been truly wonderful to see how excited you have been to see our new resources. It really means the world to us! Thank you so much for your patience as we work on this HUGE project! We hope that when you see the final product, you'll feel it was well worth the wait... In the meantime, you can find a breakdown of the changes we have made in our provisional steps documents here.

For those of you who will be continuing with the White Rose scheme of work, we have published a guide for each year group to show where our maths scheme to July 2022 materials continue to be compatible with many of the White Rose 3.0 changes.

With the launch of our own maths scheme, we will not be updating these resources. However, as our target market of schools and teachers is the same as White Rose, many of the changes we have made have been replicated in the new WR 3.0 scheme. This means that some of our older resources marked with some or no compatibility may be covered in our new DU maths scheme from September 2022.

A further compatibility document comparing our new scheme to White Rose 3.0 is also available and we will update this as each block of content is released.

These documents can be found here on our guides page.

There have been some changes to the maths resources on our website menu. Our old maths resources, developed in line with the previous version of White Rose's scheme, can now be found in the 'Maths Scheme (to July 22)' category. Our brand new resources will be published in the 'Maths Scheme (from September 22)' category. All links are live on the site but you'll notice that as yet, there are no resources available to download. In just a few days, you'll start to see our first published resources appearing in there! Exciting times!! 

If you have any queries at all, even during the summer break, please email us at [email protected] or contact us via our social media streams.

Enjoy the rest of your week and we'll be in touch again soon!
