WHAKATAUKI:
Ānō me he whare pūngāwerewere.
Behold, it is like the web of a spider.
KAUPAPA:
Mathematics and statistics enables students to investigate, interpret, and explain patterns and relationships in quantity, space, time, data, and uncertainty. Like mathematics and statistics, mātauranga Māori is a body of knowledge with a history and a future.
Students solve problems, identify patterns, and see the beauty in mathematics and statistics. They come to appreciate the everyday use of mathematical and statistical tools in, for example, personal finance, music and dance, estimation, and measurement. They recognise how their culture is included and valued in the learning area.
Learning in mathematics and statistics builds both literacy and numeracy. Mathematics and statistics contribute to students’ literacy by developing their skills in oral and written communication, and the use of specific vocabulary and symbols. Statistics and probability, in particular, support the understanding of tables, graphs, and diagrams as well as critical thinking about the quality of data.
Building knowledge about number, algebra, measurement, space, statistics, and probability, and drawing on the practices of mathematics and statistics.

FUTURE STUDIES / CAREER OPTIONS:
Through the learning area, students can discover pathways into a wide range of industries that rely on mathematical knowledge and reasoning. This allows them to participate fully in an increasingly technology- and information-rich world of work. Learning in mathematics and statistics is important for realising the aspirations and priorities of every student and their parents and whānau.
Students also come to understand the value of mathematical and statistical modelling as a lens for resolving collective global challenges – for example, in adapting to and mitigating climate change and in helping to build an equitable, sustainable future for all.
