Math Curriculum — Every Grade, Every Country, in One Place
Whatever grade your child is in and wherever you are, this is the map: what each year of math covers, how it differs by country, and how to make sure your child understands it — not just memorises it.
A math curriculum maps what a child learns each school year — from counting in kindergarten to calculus in high school. Across the US, India, the UK, Canada, Australia and the GCC, the core arc is the same; the framework name, the pace and the order differ. This page links to a full breakdown for every grade and every country, so you can find your child's exact skills in seconds.
Every country teaches the same journey, in the same order, under different names — and what changes is when each idea appears and what it's called, not the staircase itself.
A child who understands why at each step finds the next one natural. A child who only memorises finds the staircase gets steeper every year.

Pick your country for the shorthand
The arc is universal; the framework, pace and labels differ. Here's the one-glance version for each system — then open any grade page for the detail.
United States
The shorthand: counting to 120 and place value early, fractions as numbers from Grade 3, algebra foundations in middle school, named high-school courses from Algebra 1 to Calculus.
India
The shorthand: activity- and reasoning-led, tables built by logic, board exams at Class 10 and 12.
United Kingdom
The shorthand: deep number sense in Reception, fractions from Year 1, all tables by Year 4, GCSE at 16, A-Level after.
Canada
The shorthand: six strands including coding and financial literacy from Grade 1, one common Grade 9 course, then senior pathways.
Australia
The shorthand: fewer topics taught in greater depth, counting to 120 early, four senior maths subjects by ambition.
GCC
The shorthand: match your child's school system (British, American or IB) and follow the matching grade pages.
One thing decides it all: the why
Across every grade and every country, one thing decides whether a child enjoys math or fears it: whether they were taught the why.

Why parents trust the method
Bhanzu was founded by Neelakantha Bhanu Prakash — the World's Fastest Human Calculator and a 4× Guinness World Record holder — on one belief: every child can love math when they're taught to understand it.
From families in 20+ countries
We've had a wonderful experience with this online math class. My daughter genuinely looks forward to each session. Since she started, I've noticed a clear improvement in her grades and her attitude toward math — she's more confident solving problems and even practises on her own. Highly recommend it to any parent.
My 7-year-old daughter finished 6 modules already and is surprising us with her maths — addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, decimals, shapes and measurement. She's now ahead of all her friends in class and excited to complete the rest. Highly recommended for all parents.
Our kids, 6 and 7 years old, can now multiply multiple digits by a single digit after just 4–5 months of Bhanzu lessons. They learned to add, subtract and multiply in multiple ways, so they have a firm understanding of the concepts. The teachers are all very kind and patient.
I had a great experience with Bhanzu's math program. The teaching style is interactive and designed to make math less intimidating for kids. The instructors explain concepts clearly and encourage kids to solve quizzes on what they've learned. We're happy that my kid is always excited to attend.
My daughter enjoys every session of her Bhanzu classes. Her teacher is very friendly, explains concepts really well, patiently understands her students and answers them. I would highly recommend Bhanzu to my friends.
Bhanzu is very effective and the tutors are excellent. My son enjoys it — it has helped him gain confidence and love math. It's his second year and well worth it. I'm very satisfied with their communication and care too; the team stays connected until any problem is resolved. Thank you, Bhanzu.
My son goes for math classes and he loves both classes. Both teachers are awesome — I don't have any concerns. The support team is also always available and nice.
We are very happy with the discipline of the Bhanzu teachers. They are well-trained, professional and dedicated, and we're especially impressed with their teaching methods. Our son is very happy, and we can clearly see significant improvement in his mathematical abilities.
It was a great experience after joining Bhanzu. We enrolled our daughter for maths class and she really liked all the sessions. The teacher guiding her is superb. I highly recommend Bhanzu to everyone.
My child has gained confidence in mathematics. She has started to enjoy maths and her fear is slowly going away. The modules are interesting and interactive, and the teachers are supportive and caring too. Thank you, Bhanzu.
She is learning maths quickly and these days she doesn't have a fear of maths. The teacher is very polite and keeps track of every child. My daughter is really in good hands.
The teacher is wonderful. She is very patient, guiding and teaching my child and making sure he understands the concepts behind whatever is being taught.
The math curriculum map, on one page
- A math curriculum maps the journey from counting to calculus, year by year.
- The arc is universal; the framework, pace and labels differ by country.
- Use the grade index to find your child's exact skills, and the country filter for your version.
