Courses
In Mathematics and Numeracy all pupils will follow a Mathematics course in S1-4 based on building their skills and knowledge as they progress through the year groups.
S1
As learners progress through the S1 Mathematics and Numeracy courses, they should demonstrate increasing sophistication and independence in their ability to demonstrate, link, transfer and apply the following skills in a range of increasingly more challenging contexts:
- interpret questions
- select and communicate processes and solutions
- justify choice of strategy used
- link mathematical concepts
- use mathematical vocabulary and notation
- use mental agility
- evaluate algebraic expressions
- determine whether a solution to a problem seems reasonable.
S2
As learners progress through the S2 Mathematics and Numeracy courses, they should demonstrate increasing sophistication and independence in their ability to demonstrate, link, transfer and apply the following skills in a range of increasingly more challenging contexts:
- interpret questions
- select and communicate processes and solutions
- justify choice of strategy used
- link mathematical concepts
- use mathematical vocabulary and notation
- use mental agility
- evaluate algebraic expressions
- determine whether a solution to a problem seems reasonable.
