Mathematics

At our school, the study of mathematics aims to open minds, raise expectations, and transform lives. We believe mathematics is a vital, interconnected subject that helps students understand the world around them, solve problems with confidence, and access future opportunities.

Our mathematics curriculum is designed to develop fluency in mathematical skills and processes so that all students, whatever their starting point, can engage with increasingly challenging ideas. It encourages reasoning, conjecture, and problem-solving, helping students to develop curiosity, creativity, and resilience when tackling new and unfamiliar situations.

Through carefully structured learning sequences, we build secure conceptual understanding that allows students to make meaningful connections across different areas of mathematics. We are committed to making mathematics inclusive and accessible, providing support where it is needed and appropriate challenge for all, so that every student can achieve ambitious outcomes.

Our curriculum prepares students thoroughly for the Edexcel GCSE in Year 11 while also equipping them with the transferable skills of logic, numeracy, and perseverance that are essential for lifelong success.

Through mathematics, we encourage all students to be inclusive, supportive, ambitious, and evolving learners who recognise the power of mathematics in shaping their futures.

We follow the White Rose Maths curriculum. It is a 5 year scheme of work with a well sequenced journey from year 7 to year 11. The core ethos of White Rose Maths is the mastery approach, which focuses on depth of understanding rather than acceleration, ensuring that key concepts are fully grasped before moving on. The curriculum has been designed to interleave (revisiting topics within new contexts).

KS3

In KS3 students will build on their Maths learning from KS2. They will be taught to develop fluency, reason mathematically and solve problems. Students  will study number, algebra, ratio, proportion, rates of change, geometry, measures, probability, and statistics.

KS4

In KS4 students will build on key stage 3 maths learning, make connections across mathematical ideas to develop fluency, mathematical reasoning and competence in solving increasingly sophisticated problems. They will continue to study number, algebra, ratio, proportion, rates of change, geometry, measures, probability, and statistics.

KS5

In KS5 student will take their skills from key stage 4 and take them to exciting new areas of mathematics including calculus, advanced trigonometry and probability distributions. They develop skills in creative problem solving and mathematical communication to provide solutions to problems at the highest level.
