The published NEO Maths site is where the canonical maths spine is actually taught: one interactive lesson page per lesson, each carrying the six Cornerstones, Reconnection Routes to earlier learning, a Practice Companion, a Learner Guide and Supporting Adult Guidance. Built and maintained by NEO’s maths curriculum designer in nudgeeducation/neo-maths; Git is canonical, the Google Classroom master courses are derived from it.
This page is the join between the vault and the site. The vault says what the learning is (KS3 Maths, KS4 Maths) and how it is assessed (Edexcel IGCSE 4MA1); the site holds the lessons.
Pathways and rhythm (GreenPrint entry v2.2)
- Foundations (internal stage code Y9) — 2 × 45-minute lessons a week, 76 guided lesson opportunities a year; National Curriculum KS3 bridging to 4MA1 Foundation tier.
- Intermediate (internal stage code Y10) — 3 × 45-minute lessons a week, 114 opportunities; 4MA1 Higher tier, which assumes all Foundation content.
Stage codes are internal, not learner-facing year groups.
