Mathematics
Curriculum Intent
The mathematics curriculum is broad and ambitious, constructed to ensure that all students have the mathematical fluency, reasoning and problem solving skills to fulfil their hopes and dreams in the world beyond. The aim of the mathematics curriculum is to develop students’ knowledge, skills and understanding of the following mathematical concepts:
- Number;
- Ratio and Proportion;
- Algebra;
- Geometry;
- Statistics;
- Probability.
Students will develop skills to use within Mathematics and across related subjects to reason mathematically making deductions, inferences and conclusions in order to solve increasingly complex problems.
It is important that pupils develop both conceptual understanding, the ability to recall and apply knowledge in new problem solving situations that increasingly link topics together.
Students work towards the OCR GCSE in Mathematics. Units of work differ by ability as shown in the drop downs below.
