Week A
The Maths department is fully staffed by a dedicated team who are keen to adapt to a range of teaching approaches from experience and current research.
Intent
Mathematics at Thurstable School is for students to see the value, beauty and relationships between the theoretical and practical aspects of mathematics. To understand the key principals of mathematics, think mathematically and become numerate and confident problem solving members of the community. Our curriculum is a spiral curriculum to ensure students meet skills regularly and further challenge students each year.
Facilities
The Mathematics department is made up of 8 spacious, dedicated classrooms each with large whiteboards and projectors.
Enrichment
Our students compete in all 3 UKMT competitions. We also offer opportunities in problem solving in national programs including the cipher challenge.
