Here at Musselburgh Grammar School we want everyone to love and enjoy mathematics. We hope that the resources on these pages will help you with your studies in the subject.
Mathematics is everywhere from the technology used in your phones to the skills needed to build the tallest building or the fastest cars. You'll use it in your job when you leave school, you'll use it when you go shopping or want to work out a budget to organise your finances. The skills you learn in maths today will help you be numerate citizens of the world!
In S1, S2 and S3 we are looking to increase confidence in pupil's mathematics and numeracy skills building on the skills learnt in Primary School. The aim is to enjoy coming to class, learning in multiple different ways and really secure the foundations for academic success in S4 onwards.
In S4, based on teacher recommendations from learning in S1 to S3 pupils can choose one of the following pathways:
National 4 Applications of Maths,
National 5 Maths,
National 5 Applications of Maths.
More information can be found about these courses by clicking the boxes above.
In S5 or S6, with the correct level of award from previous academic years, pupils can choose the following pathways:
National 5 Mathematics or Applications of Mathematics,
Higher Applications of Maths,
Higher Maths,
Personal Finance at either Level 4 or 5.
For pupils with the academic appetite and ability they can go on to study Advanced Higher Maths in S6.
