Maths makes sense of the world around us and helps us to understand the natural world as well as the man-made environment. Students learn about number, algebra, geometry, ratio and proportion, statistics and probability. The students will be required to develop numerical fluency to gain a broad range of skills. They will be required to develop their problem solving and reasoning skills to effectively apply this knowledge to successfully answer a range of probing mathematical questions and problems.
We believe that Maths lessons should be enjoyable, accessible and applicable. The subject is relevant to everyone. The cultural aspects of the development of mathematics are explored and the universality of the subject is celebrated. We strive to develop the philosophy of achievement, to create an environment where all students develop the desire to improve, to take responsibility for their learning and to extend this development inside and outside of the classroom.
We can offer you a rewarding opportunity to work in a welcoming and supportive environment. Our students are eager to learn, work hard and achieve well. Pupils and staff treat each other with respect and courtesy. Around the building and in lessons, pupils behave very well. Senior leaders are ambitious for Cottesloe students. The Headteacher is supported by talented and committed staff. Staff are very proud to work at the school. They feel valued because leaders consider their workload.
