Equtions aren't in the new NC - algebraic expressions are which is something completely different ...
Algebra (Year 6)
• use simple formulae
• generate and describe linear number sequences
• express missing number problems algebraically
• find pairs of numbers that satisfy an equation with two unknowns
• enumerate possibilities of combinations of two variables.

Not the algebra we were discussing which was forming and solving equations ...
