Mathematics is a core subject throughout the college and all pupils are prepared for public examinations at both Junior Cycle and Leaving Certificate level.
Each form has 5 lessons per week, each of 45/40 minutes length. All examination forms are set on attainment level whilst the approach to I Form & TY is a little more common level. The top three sets at Senior Cycle and top two sets at Junior Cycle will prepare to undertake exams at the higher-level. Different styles of books and resources are used for the different attainment levels.

The role of the teacher is to work as part of a team, participating in the formulation of the department’s policies and carrying them out in the classroom. Teachers must have a positive attitude to their work and to guide and support the pupils in their charge in a variety of ways. The department consists of five very well qualified and highly experienced Mathematics teachers, four of whom teach the subject full-time.
