Maths

Mathematics is taught to all pupils throughout their five years at the school. All pupils are grouped based on their ability which is ascertained through KS2 results as well as through our own rigorous testing on arrival and during their time with us.

KS3

Pupils in year 7 and 8 now follow our new KS3 levelled scheme, which has been created centrally by our sponsor, the Academies Enterprise Trust. This allows our students' progress and attainment to be measured in comparison with other schools within the trust, providing reliable and validated data when students sit the summative assessment at the end of each term.

GCSE

In years 9, 10 and 11 the pupils study for the GCSE exam, following the Edexcel course. 100% of the final grade is assessed through examination, allowing a complete focus throughout the three years. Each pupil is pushed to reach their full potential by being taught by specialist teachers along with strong interventions such as grade-specific targeted after school clubs.

A-Level

Although there is no current year 12 class, Mathematics may be offered as an option in 2018-19 if there is enough uptake from Sixth Form students.
