What are KIRFS (Key Instant Recall Facts)?

To help develop children’s fluency in mathematics, we ask them to learn Key Instant Recall Facts each half term. We expect children to practise their KIRFs once a day.

These lists of KIRFs align with the new curriculum. They are designed to be challenging and it is intended that children will be taught the necessary maths in lessons beforehand.

If you would like to practise these at home, please see the overview below for what your child is expected to know.
