mathematics at EPCHS

Curriculum At Key stage 3, what we teach flows from the National Numeracy Strategy Medium Term Plans from year 7 right through to GCSE. At key stage 4 we teach learners toward Edexcel GCSE at Foundation and Higher tiers. This prepares learners for Sixth-form study of a range of courses including A-level maths and further maths specifications.

Setting Year 7 this year are being taught in mixed ability form groups to give them longer to settle before we set them. In years 8 and 9, we have three or four sets in each half of the year, with an average class size of 23 or so. In years 10 and 11, we have five sets in each half of the year, with an average class size of about 18. Pupils can still move up and down between sets at the end of term depending on what’s best for them.

In school, we are available to help pupils after school every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Mondays are particularly for KS3. At home, try logging on to mathsurgery.wikispaces.com to see the topics we’ve covered in class, find out what homework was set and get revision and learning help Support

numeracy at EPCHS

1.The lowest levels of participation in the jobs market are those with poor numeracy rather than poor literacy skills. 2.“I advise my students to listen carefully the moment they decide to take no more mathematics courses. They might be able to hear the sound of closing doors.” James Caballero, % of adults cannot calculate the interest on a loan, 71% cannot work out the miles per gallon on a trip, 58% cannot calculate 10% for a tip. 4.Long term, sustainable, improvement in maths ability. 5.Thinking and problem solving skills. Why introduce a numeracy policy?

Standards At GCSE the A* - C pass rate has increased from 46% to over 70% in the past seven years. A-level students have gained A* grades in mathematics and A grades in further mathematics. Our students have won competitive places on the Nuffield Bursary and at some of England’s top universities to read sciences and mathematics.
