Numeracy

The focus of Mathematics sessions is to develop, improve and extend students’ mathematical knowledge and skills using the Victorian Curriculum, through planned and targeted learning tasks.

We foster positive attitudes towards Mathematics, providing opportunities for students to experience success, use mathematical reasoning and problem solving, learning through open-ended tasks, games and hands-on activities. Students learn to embrace challenges and apply their knowledge of numeracy to real-life contexts.

Teachers use explicit teaching strategies and effective assessments to target and implement engaging and focused learning experiences for all students. This is achieved through a differentiated curriculum that recognises and responds to diverse student needs and the next steps needed for each student to progress and flourish.

Students work actively through independent and collaborative learning experiences to find connections and apply mathematical concepts, skills and processes. Their engagement in learning is enhanced through the use of digital technologies.
