Maths
Our Curriculum Aims:
"It is clear that the chief end of mathematical study must be to make the students think."
John Wesley Young, American mathematician 1879-1932
We aim for our students to:
- Become fluent in the fundamentals of Mathematics so that they develop conceptual understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately.
- Reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing relationships and generalisations, and developing an argument, justification or proof.
- Solve problems by applying their knowledge to a variety of routine and non-routine problems.
- Enjoy the study of Mathematics and experience its wide-ranging cross-curricular links and application in the real-world.
- Develop their confidence, independence and resilience through being challenged.
- Have a strong knowledge and skills base to progress to the next key stage, support their studies of other subjects and to enter a wide range of technical and scientific professions.
