NUMERACY

Objective of Programme

The Mathematics structured and progressive programme equips students with the essential Mathematical knowledge, skills and attitudes towards academic achievement for higher educational institutions.

Main Content Areas

The Mathematics syllabus includes number, measurement, geometry and data analysis.

Approaches Used

The school adopts the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA) approach for Mathematics teaching and learning based on individual learners. Concrete materials introduce students to mathematical concepts through real-world experiences. These real experiences enable students to visualise objects which are then transferred to Pictorial examples illustrated with photographs and pictures. Abstract examples provide students with the use of mathematical symbols related to the concrete and pictorials examples previously learnt.
