Mathematics
Our goal is to equip every student with the tools they need to apply mathematical skills and principles to their everyday lives. Mathematics is not only relevant but intrinsic to the world around us and therefore we want to build the foundations of why and how Mathematical principles work. We want to imbue each student with a flair and enthusiasm for Mathematics and enable them to problem solve creatively, as well as analyse and evaluate with a structured understanding built upon the framework during their time at Waldegrave.
In Year 7 and 8, our mastery curriculum is designed to expand and secure mathematical understanding of the key concepts in number, geometry, algebra, ratio, proportion and statistics; in order to have a smooth transition into the GCSE syllabus. At GCSE and A level we continue to expand students’ knowledge, understanding and love of Mathematics. For both GCSE and A-Level we follow the Edexcel syllabus.
